National Manufacturing Mending Brace 118
This four-count pack of zinc-finished steel mending braces reinforces and splices panels in home and industrial settings. The straight design suits quick surface repairs on general household items. Countersunk screw holes provide a flush fit. Screws are included for immediate installation.
Verify material and hole pattern before ordering
Confirm the steel substrate and zinc finish match the surrounding hardware to avoid galvanic mismatch. Ensure the two-hole layout aligns with the joint you plan to reinforce. Check that the supplied screws suit the thickness of the panels being joined.
Fits flush repairs and panel connections
The brace sits flat across butt joints, corner splits or cracked panels to restore rigidity. Countersunk holes keep fastener heads below the surface for painting or laminating. Included screws remove the need to source separate fasteners. Ideal for light-duty reinforcement where a low-profile steel strap is required.

Questions about this item
What comes in the 4-count pack of N114314 mending braces and do I need to buy screws separately?
The pack contains four zinc-finished steel mending braces measuring 2 inches by 1/2 inch with two countersunk holes each, and screws are included so no separate purchase is needed.
How do I decide between the catalog model 118 and V118 versions of this brace?
Model 118 and V118 refer to the same National Catalog mending brace design; both share the 2-inch length, 1/2-inch width, zinc finish, steel construction, two-hole pattern and included screws.
What does the 2-inch length mean when I install the brace on a real repair?
The 2-inch length gives a short reinforcement span suited for surface repairs on panels or household items, with two countersunk holes spaced for a secure flat mount using the included screws.
