Adjustable Brace for Joists

This Hubbell Raco 0936 brace spans joist spacing from 16 to 24 inches and expands without tools. It provides a round box with a 15.8 cubic inch capacity and preset support brackets. The steel construction meets NEMA OS-1 and carries cULus listing.

Ideal for Remodel Lighting and Fans

Suits remodelers mounting a single lighting fixture or ceiling fan between existing joists where new construction access is not available. The tool-free adjustment speeds installation in finished ceilings. Builders who need a fixed bracket for open framing or a multi-gang box should look elsewhere.

15.8 cu in Round Box Capacity

The single-gang round box offers 15.8 cubic inches of internal volume, which determines how many conductors and devices fit inside. Two 1/2 inch back knockouts provide cable entry points. Verify this capacity matches your fill requirements before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the 0936 adjustable brace fit the 16 in to 24 in joist spacing in my older ceiling?

Yes, the brace telescopes from 16 in to 24 in and locks tool-free, so it spans the existing joist bays without cutting new framing.

How can I confirm the 0936 box is securely mounted after installation?

The preset support brackets seat against the joists and the brace locks in place; a firm hand-push should show no lateral movement once expanded.

Does the 0936 come with mounting screws or a fixture canopy, or must I buy them separately?

The package includes only the steel box, adjustable bar hanger and two 1/2 in. back knockouts; screws, wire connectors and canopy are purchased separately.
