Yes - it is a (brad) nail gun as well. I use Arrow # BN1810 5/8" Brad Nails. This stapler takes 5 sizes of staples (1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2" & 9/16") and 2 sizes of brad nails (1/2" & 5/8").

I strongly suggest that you don't buy this piece of junk. I used it for about one hour for an insulation job and it stopped working. It went straight into the garbage. It's chinese made so it's all about look and appearance. You should go with an Arrow product they are much better and components are stronger instead of fake plastic like the Stanley piece of crap.Good luck!

It's just a stapler ......upholstery grade. I use it daily in my shop. You won't be disappointed .

What they are talking about, referring to vinyl siding, this stapler comes with an attachment so you can use this gun to shoot staples into vinyl siding.

It uses regular size staples. However, I could not get it to staple 20 pages... it stapled about 12 pages, maximum. I found this stapler absolutely useless and returned it. I would NOT recommend this stapler to anyone.

I agree with Ken that this is a great stapler, and I have never needed anything other than the 20 gauge staples. I do have to disagree with him on the availability of the staples. I can get them from my local Home Depot under the brand name Duo Fast. When I ran out of the staples I ordered with my gun, this is where I get mine if I don't have the time to run across town to the flooring supply store.

I am no expert. But I purchased the staples that came with it. I have a regular Bostitch stapler and it only uses B8 staples. So far I like it very much - very powerful, but loud.

The Arrow stapler is one of the worst tools I have ever owned. I do not recommend it. You need a stapler that will shoot "round crown" staples.

It uses standard staples, at least until it breaks. For me that was on the 3rd staple.

No. Air nailers, brad nailers, staplers are okay because they don't require as much torque and power. For impact wrenches you need more power and air capacity. Spinning lug nuts, for example, requires substantial torque. Air ratchets require more torque to loosen and tighten down nuts and bolts. I use my IR in my wood shop. In my garage/metal shop, I have a much larger, more powerful unit.

This stapler purchased in the case. Comes with a small package of staples 25 mm, so that you can test the functionality of the tool

I have one and used it to staple in hardwood oak flooring. My flooring was 1/2" by 1.5". I used the Senco 1/4" by 1" staples (18 gauge) and never had a single problem. For the money, and ease of use, this nailer/stapler did the job perfectly! I did some research beforehand, as to which was better and held better- nails or staples. Staples hold better than nails

It can use smaller depth staples (3/8" to 3/4" I believe is the range), but this is a heavy-duty construction-type stapler. It has the power to fire staples into wood (which sounds like you need) and is the easiest gun to use in my estimation. The mechanism works the smoothest of any gun I have used.

You can staple easily into bulletin boards. Sheet rock/wall board if needed. This stapler is much easier on the hands than a regular staple gun. They are, however, moody. They can last 2 years or 2 weeks (both have happened to me.) The stapler will eventually jam and never work again.

I bought mine quite a while ago so my memory may not be perfect. The stapler has worked well for me. I believe it came with a small box of staples but I am not positive.

Three finish nailers. Regular finish nails, pin nails, and micro pins. I bought this Hitachi and I am having a lot of trouble with it. Nails will not shoot consistently. I would look at Senco variety.

The stapler doesn't have any staples. It very ingeniously makes a tab that folds back onto itself. The only part that opens is the clear window. To open it simply place your thumb on the top of the window and slide it away from the main body. Just be very sure not to use more than 5 0r 6 (less if the paper is thick) pages or you run the risk of the unit jamming. That would be the only time it's necessary to slide the clear window open. This item is not meant for heavy duty stapling. I use it for things I know I will eventually shred or documents that won't repeated referral - only filing for safe keeping. Hope this helps.
