Hi all I need a pneumatic staple gun for plywood etc, also it needs to take type 77 staples 22mm, what do you guys use? Cheers Mick the floor layer.
You need a pneumatic coil nailer not a stapler Staples can work there way loose and cause squeaking There a weak fixing for plywood the head has virtually not surface area compared to the head of a nail and can pull through the ply if theres any slight movement in the subfloor.
I normally use staples with 6mm on chipboard, never had any problems . I use tacwise 90 series staples
If after a stapler get the bostitch sx1838 bout 120 and can get the divergent 22mm staples (type 90) for about a tenner a box roughly, for 6mm ply on chipboard it's sound as a pound although if you need 9mm on floorboards your probably better getting the nailgun spacey said
Yea Paul iv always used a spot nailer mallet driven, but when I'm doing bigger areas it's hard going, as I nearly always work on my own
Thanks pf, yea the bostich do have really good reviews, but does it take spotnail staples, everybody I sub to use these so saves getting all different types cheers.
No mate uses type 90 staples I bought 10 packs of 5000 from fixingguns co.uk they do a bulk order discount http://fixingguns.co.uk/tacwise-90-...fnX9jj6y440S3ILB3aL7QqdUTrW4ZxkRoCXHwQAvD_BwE
No oil and has a rapid fire trigger not jammed once either much much better than the spotnails one I had that broke
I buy about 5 a year from Aldi or Lidl for around £15 or £20 each and they use the tacwise 90 series I mentioned , Think one brand is parkside can't remember the other , ones blue ones green , Great buy
Divergent staples are fine for chipboard but like would defo be better to coil nail really, personally sold mine and replaced with a stapler as i only do new builds and its always chipboard floors for ply
Get the bostitch then it's 120 with a 7 yr warranty it's for my money the best stapler going, only thing that slows you down is the compressor
Really ????? Shopping at Aldi and Lidl for work tools ? Next we'll be supplying our customers with sticky back vinyl tiles from Poundland
