A pelt board for tubular furs such as mink, includes a foot end and a tip end, and also includes half parts extending between opposite longitudinal edges, and an internal cavity for distributing drying air between the half parts. A distension system is configured to reduce or increase the circumference of the pelt board dependent on the setting of said distension system. The half parts include ventilation openings, which provide a flow of drying air between the internal cavity and the outer surface of the half parts. The outer surface of at least one of the half parts includes an outer guiding recess for receiving an air exchange part. The guiding recess extends substantially from the tip end of the pelt board in a direction towards the foot end, and ends substantially at a drying air supply opening to the internal cavity.
