Simpson Strong-Tie® Wall Bracing products offer effective options to resist racking during construction.

Not designed to replace structural panel shearwall load-carrying component.

The WBC (coiled WB) multiple product dispenser pack weighs less than 40 pounds, making storage and transportation easy. WB106C - 15 pieces per roll, WB126C - 12 pieces per roll, WB143C - 10 pieces per roll.

The RCWB features a rolled edge (the TWB has two rolled edges) for extra strength and safety.
