Simpson Strong-Tie NCA NCA2X8-16 Nailless Compression Bridging, 15-1/4 in L, 0.69 in W, 2 x 8, 2 x 14 in Post/Joist

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.
