MayBee Deep Brood Beehive Frames 10-Pack — 9-1/8" Deep with Beeswax-Dipped Plastic Foundations for Faster Comb Building

If you manage Langstroth-style hives, these deep frames are sized to standard brood boxes and deep supers (9-1/8"). They arrive unassembled so you can build only what you need, and their wax-coated foundations help colonies draw comb quickly while maintaining a visible, natural honey tone for easy inspections. Frames are sanded smooth for a snug fit and long-term use in humid or changing apiary conditions.

How will these frames speed up my bees’ comb building?

The included food-grade plastic foundations are factory-dipped in beeswax so bees recognize cell starts immediately and begin drawing comb faster than with bare plastic or wireless frames. The wax layer also provides a natural scent bees accept readily.

• Beeswax-dipped plastic foundation for instant cell guidance
• Natural honey color improves comb visibility during inspection
• Standard deep dimensions let bees build full-sized brood chambers

Are these frames compatible with my hive and easy to assemble?

Yes — the frames match standard deep/Langstroth dimensions (9-1/8" x 19" x 1-3/8") and fit 8- or 10-frame deep boxes. They ship unassembled so you can glue and nail them quickly, which reduces shipping cost and storage bulk.

• Unassembled pack of 10 frames for flexible hive configurations
• Sanded pine parts for tight joints and secure fit
• Works in 8- or 10-frame brood or deep boxes

What materials and finish are used, and how does that affect durability?

Frames are milled from quality pine and polished on every side to remove splinters and sharp edges. The smooth finish helps prevent damage to nurse bees and brood while allowing a snug frame fit that reduces drift and warping over time.

• Top-quality pinewood with precise polishing for smooth edges
• Robust dimensions built to standard deep frame thickness
• Wax-coated foundation resists early deformation during drawing

How do these frames help during inspections and honey handling?

The natural honey-colored foundation makes it easier to spot debris, brood, or stores without excessive handling. As comb is drawn on a rigid plastic foundation, frames remain straighter and simpler to uncap or harvest compared with poorly supported comb.

• Natural color allows quicker visual checks for contaminants
• Plastic foundation provides structural support during extraction
• Deep frame size supports full brood patterns and larger honey stores

Who is this for: Beekeepers setting up or refilling deep (brood or super) hive boxes who want ready-to-draw foundations with a natural beeswax surface. These frames suit hobbyists and small-scale producers replacing worn frames, expanding apiaries, or preferring unassembled packs for storage and transport. They are especially helpful for beekeepers who value standardized deep dimensions, easy inspections, and quicker comb drawing without altering hive management practices.
