Q:What staple guns can drive these?
by|Sep 8, 2019
2 Answers
Answer This Question

A:  The staple gun these can drive is low-volt staple gun #MSG-301.

by|Sep 25, 2019

    A:  Hello and thank you for your question. These staples are unable to be used in a staple gun. Staple gun staples use an inline design, basically like an office stapler staples, and do not fasten using individual staples like our MSI-200JT. This style of staple is intended for hammering in. Our MPS-2125 is moreso used in a staple gun, MSG-501. This is a plastic staple, inline to use in a staple gun. For any further questions, please refer to our customer service at customer.service@gardnerbender.com

      Q:Can I stack wires? For instance 2 12/2 or 2 14/2 or a 12/2 and a 14/2.

      Answer This Question

      A:  Yes you can stack wires and I use them specifically for this application.

      by|Mar 31, 2020

        A:  Not in Mass.

        by|Dec 20, 2019

        A:  If the package has a UL listing as acceptable for stacked installation, then yes. Keep in mind many municipalities do not allow this in their jurisdictions, listed or not. Legality aside, most professionals will not stack cable runs as it is considered unprofessional and lazy.

        by|Jun 8, 2021

          A:  Yes you can. I wouldn’t go any more than 2 runs of romex due to staples not being long enough to hold 3 runs.

          Q:Can I use this product for a metal cable MC?
          by|Nov 3, 2017
          2 Answers
          Answer This Question

          A:  You could but it’s not correct. MC cable takes a metal clamp, however if it isn’t permitted you could use them. Problem is you run the risk of crushing the MC conductors hammering them down. I would definitely avoid using them if possible.

          by|Sep 25, 2019

          A:  This product can be used with metal cable.

            Perfect staples for the old wood in my house, they are tough enough to be hammered into brittle wood without bending. The plastic strap is nice for protection as well. I use these with 12 and 14 gauge but they will work up to 10/3. These will rust if exposed to water.

            Does what you'd expect. Packaging is good and they are very sharp, which makes it easy to start them, at least in soft woods. However they did seem prone to bending. I was using them in an awkward corner, so my swing definitely contributed, but they'd often be used in awkward spots. On a side note, I was looking for screw-down zip ties and couldn't find any, then I thought I could use these to anchor down regular zip ties and it worked great.

            These Gardner Bender metal insulated staples are a bonus to protect your wire with the plastic insulation added. I don't use many of these around the house, but appreciate how it will help me protect my wires without damaging the sheath. I didn't mind the small increase in price to keep me from running new wires due to a mistake with my nailing abilities.
