The Honey Paw Langstroth Nuc Medium Super Body (168mm) is a compact, versatile hive body designed specifically for nucleus colonies, offering the perfect balance of space, insulation, and manageability. Built to standard Langstroth 2/3 (168mm) dimensions—also known as a Farrar size—it is ideal for use with medium frames, making it a practical choice for queen rearing, splits, and small colony development.
Manufactured from high-density expanded polystyrene (approx. 100 kg/m³), this nuc body delivers excellent insulation, helping smaller colonies maintain a stable internal temperature in all weather conditions. This is particularly important for nucs, where consistent warmth plays a key role in brood development and colony success.
Designed to hold up to 4 Langstroth medium frames, the 168mm depth provides just the right amount of space for growing colonies without overwhelming them. Its compact size makes it easy to handle, transport, and inspect, while still offering the durability and long-term performance expected from Honey Paw equipment.
One of the standout features of the Honey Paw nuc system is its modular flexibility. Two medium nuc bodies can be used side by side on a standard Langstroth hive footprint, allowing you to expand, combine, or manage colonies with ease as your apiary grows.
Lightweight, robust, and easy to assemble, the Honey Paw Langstroth Nuc Medium Super Body is a practical and reliable solution for beekeepers looking to efficiently manage smaller colonies. Whether you’re raising queens, creating splits, or maintaining reserve colonies, this nuc box offers the performance and flexibility needed to support healthy, productive bees.
