Product description

The TB provides bracing between floor joists as a critical contribution to the structural strength of a floor. Installed in pairs, this tension-type bridging keeps joists in place and prevents them from rotating while distributing loads over more than one joist. The TB model line is designed with flexibility to fit multiple joist sizes for each model depending on joist height and O.C. joist spacing.

Made of steel with a galvanized finish, measuring 0.04 in thick, with fastener size 0.148 x 1-1/2 in, post/joist size 2 x 8 2 x 16 in.

  • Tension-type bridging with maximum nailing flexibility; use just two of the seven nail holes at each end
  • Easy to install
  • Engineer trusted and contractor proven you can trust the quality of Simpson Strong-Tie
  • Galvanized (G90) for extra corrosion resistance
  • Keeps floor system continuity and prevents joist rotation
  • Installation flexibility, with seven nail holes on each end
  • 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
  • Requires two 0.148 x 1-1/2 in fasteners per end
