Why do they make both 7/16 and 1/2 inch pneumatic staplers?
Nov 25, 2008 by lance d | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
Seems like these two sizes are almost the same. Why have both available?
Some times the staples are used on material that is only a 1/2 inch thick and the staples come through the other side. This gives you the option of using one that doesn't show

where can i buy sf21 staples for senco pneumatic stapler lns156p?
May 20, 2006 by Richard L | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
Bought this stapler from a hardware shop in france, unable to find ref to staples anywhere on the net.
I do not where you live,but in KS. the cheapest place to go is JS supply,a contractors supply store that also sells to open public.So I guess I'm saying a contractors supply store that sells to the public. All hardware stores will special order anything, but WOW do you pay for it! Also a commercial lumber yard will order them for you, still the cheapest is a supply shop.

How does a pneumatic tap cap stapler work?
Apr 14, 2009 by crazytrain565 | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
Do you have to hit it with a mallet or does it work alone?
If you are talking about a floor nailer to install hardwood flooring, you bump it with a mallet.
Much less work than using a manual nailer.
There is also a Button-Kap nailer for installing roofing felt caps, you just pull the trigger on that.

benefits of pneumatic tools?
May 06, 2007 by Jason W | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
I have used a pneumatic nailer and staplers on previous projects. I noticed there are quite a few different pneumatic tools out there to use. I am wondering why you would use pneumatic over electric tools. Thank you for your time!
I prefer them because they feed off a single source--an air compressor. They interchange quickly so I don't have to unplug the cord, drop the extension cord, pick it up, plug in again, etc. like you do with electric tools. Also, better electric tools have heavier motors to produce torque; but a good Aro screwdriver has plenty of torque at only 90 psi. The down side to air is that you have to have at least a 7hp unit to run sanders or other high CFM (cubic feet per minute) tools. But if I could only choose electric or pneumatic, it would be pneumatic in a heartbeat.

What sizes of staples can a Central Pneumatic 18 Gauge 2-in-1 Nailer Stapler Gun use?
May 14, 2009 by Cindy P | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
It shoots staples up to 1", brads up to 2". Buy a small box, though. These guns are disposable. Hope this helps

Good Stapler for the money
Nice little stapler for the money. Works great for stapling fabric on flat surfaces. The design of the safety tip ensures that your staple is a few millimeters behind where the safety tip meets your work piece. This makes it very difficult to use in tight spaces. I did experience several misfires where the drive pin that deployes the staple didn't fully tract once a staple was ejected, forcing me to have to open the staple magazine and manually push it back to the "ready" position. This seemed to happen regularly when attempting to use in tight spaces, but not so much on flat open spaces where the safety tip could be fully deployed.

Be Warned
I received this as a gift.
It will not take narrow crown staples, not 1/4 inch, not 3/8 inch. It looks like it probably takes 1/2 inch wide staples.
There is no possible way it could take anything else because of how the closing mechanism works.
Unless mine is a defect or something.

Easier on the hands
I purchased this tool to install carpeting on a stairway. The thought of having to do that task using a hand stapler never crossed my mind. I searched for staplers and found the Surebonder 9500 and based on previous reviews, I purchased the tool. I was not disappointed. I used Arrow staples and never had a misfire. I ran about 2000 staples through the gun over two days. Job completed. The only downside was that the plastic cap or air discharge left a few black marks on the walls. Good tool for small jobs. The next project is insulation.
Exceptional performance and value
I waited to run my first 1000 staples through the Surebonder before writing a review. It's been outstanding in every way. Lightweight and comfortable to operate, it delivers ample power to staple into dense hardwood with apparent ease, without jamming or misfiring. While power settings must be regulated at the compressor, the stapler has a very effective safety switch preventing firing unless pressed down on a surface. I hope that my favorable impression is born out over the next 100K staples.
Works Great
My wife had an upholstered chair from her grandma. It was not real old, but two of the springs came loose. To get at those, multiple layers of upholstery had to be pulled up. I bought a professional upholstery staple puller and this stapler. These two items made the job easy and the outcome was great.
We also used the stapler to attach triangular flags to dowels for a church kids' program.
I expect to use it for other things in the future. The price makes it nice for an occasional user like myself.
One thing I wish was that the sides of the stapler tapered to a point that corresponded to the center of the staple. That way you could naturally know where the staple would go. You have to think about centered the staple the way it is constructed.

Very useful stapler
I bought this stapler after a disappointment with a "refurbished" older model that would drive both staples and brads. Compared to the older one, the SX1838K was easier to use in terms of putting the staples exactly where I wanted them and particularly for providing good countersinking of the fasteners. It also does not require oiling, which avoids the possibility of staining the work. I use the stapler in my home shop for cabinet making and a variety of day to day fastening needs. I found the 7/32" staple and this stapler to be something I count on and use often, usually along with glue, to get a strong, tight joint very quickly, without having the confusion of clamping up the pieces and driving a screw.

Porter-Cable Upholstery Stapler
Lots of products out there to meet this need. Porter's unit is well built, feels solid, easy to operate, and a great entry price-point. I'm not a professional upholstery fabricator, I'm re-doing my boat upholstery and am using this unit with my Porter-Cable compressor, using 3/8" x 3/8" stainless steel staples and it's been great. And I'm confident that I could complete my job, and turn it around in near new condition on EBay and get 80-90% of my money back!
One hint, adjust the air on your gun and test staples. At the higher end of the range it'll set the staples so far that the fabric will pull out (depending on your material and base). I had to run it on the lowest setting in the recommended range, which was as low as my regulator would adjust.
I definitely recommend this unit. Also, great vendor as well!

This is a Pro Stapler for sure!
Like any well made product the Porter Cable Upholstery Stapler is absolutely a delight to use. The 1" long extension is a must for anyone working on upholstery projects. We used it recently on some oak chairs using 3/8" fine wire staples from Amazon at 70psi. Follow the instructions and you should have no problems.

Performed Flawlessly
Have done various reupholstering projects through the years and had always hand stapled. What a difference this this tool made! It reduced the time required to complete the project and greatly improved the quality of the work. It did not "misfire" once. It is lightweight and easy to use. I highly recommend the tool, at least for home use.

Wicked Reliable
I have had mine for about seven years and it has never given me any trouble. These things have a lot of power and really get the boards together nice and tight. Another nice thing is that the staples are available at Home Depot etc. I have put in countless floors and even lent it out several times and it still works great. I am about to purchase a second one and can't wait to try it with the prefinished floor foot that it now comes with. Tip: You usually use these in combination with a finish nailer (for the starting and ending rows). You can blind nail with the finish nailer. I usually take the rubber tip off to get in close. I use a Hitachi 15 gauge angled finish nailer and when I get too close to the far wall for the Hitachi I switch to a smaller straight 16 gauge finish nailer. I also keep an 18 gauge finish nailer handy for when a board is ripped down to where I am worried about splitting it (face nailing it). Good luck.
A good deal on flooring stapler
I was familiar with this tool and was happy to find a good deal on a reconditioned one. It has served flawlessly for two thousand square feet of cherry flooring, and I anticipate selling it locally for what I paid when I'm done with this project. Excellent service on the sale as well. No complaints whatsoever.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000224PN/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title

This is the real thing, what the professional hardwood installers use. Easy to use with an air compressor unit. Got it at a great price from amazon, compared to Home Depot and Lowes. Used it to finish my Study and now plan to do the rest of first level floors and the stairs. I recommend this model (stapler) compared to the floor nailer.
