Outward clinch staple gun - THAT WORKS!

I need to get another outward clinch staple gun, like asap. Was planning a good day today, up until my POS G-5 red handle staple gun took a crap on me.

What you you using, that works? And continues to work! Seems me and my boss have the only guns in the world that get to a point and decide to stop working for the day. Oh heck, does that make them hack brand stapler guns then?

So I am sending out the proverbial.......... HELP!

I have never found one that lasted more than 2 months.

And there is the problem. Always crapz out at the wrong time, on the weekend and nothing is open.....aaarrrrggggggggg

Maybe buy two of them so you always have a new one ready to go then replace the broken one as a standby for when the back up breaks.

Mines lasted 15 years.

Black bostich I think.

Same one they changed to the red ones.

My red ones works fine too.

You been keeping oil on it?
I keep my black on stored in an oily rag

Only ones I ever had break was the blue kind.

Drop that and it sounds like glass breaking.

My bostich staplers are some of my oldest tools, cant believe they break on you

Also, are they company tools or personal tools?

personal tools seem to last longer

Arrow t-50 OC

That is what we keep but 99 % of duct here is metal

We use them for the fiberglass wrap on the metal duct.

Same here.

We use bubble wrap.

Think I have tried them all. Non seem to last very long.

We are using the bubble wrap now, we still use fiberglass on some change-outs.

r-6 (fiberglass) for commercial
r-4.2 is req. for resi. here.
local code.

I used to use that theory, but I can't ever find the standby


someday I need to find all my shit and put it in one big pile, and sort it out

Me too.
I know I have two staplers for sure, but I might have four

Local metro code and most surrounding counties now are r-8 here. Only when we get out in the sticks is it ok with r-4.2.
