The NCA provides bracing between floor joists as a critical contribution to the structural strength of a floor. Installed in pairs, this nail less compression bridging keeps joists in place and prevents them from rotating while distributing loads over more than one joist. The NCA features precision-formed V-shaped prongs, in place of nails, to provide a secure grip before the drive-home blow for deeper prong penetration.
- Nail less bridging installation eliminates callbacks for nail squeaks
- Precision-formed into a rigid "V" section
- May be installed before or after sheathing, from the top or bottom
- Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
- Keeps floor system continuity and prevents joist rotation
- Installs with built-in prongs that eliminate nail squeaks
- Support floor joists with a depth-to-thickness ratio of six or more with bridging at intervals not exceeding 8 ft, if span is greater than 8 ft, install on 2 x 8 or larger joists, if span is greater than 16 ft, use more than one pair
- Tension bridging works only in tension, so must be used in cross pairs
- Install bridging tightly; loose installation may allow floor movement
