Things to Know Before Buying
-
Requires a clean, properly regulated compressed-air supply — ensure your system supports it for best performance.
-
Confirm your staple inventory matches the 84 series/SBNK-series spec and the leg length range suits your material stack-up.
-
Although lightweight for a pneumatic tacker, frequent use still warrants good ergonomics and operator variation to avoid fatigue.
-
If your materials exceed the 9⁄16″ leg length or require a wider crown staple, verify that this model is suitable — you may need a different tool for heavier-duty stacks.
-
Routine maintenance — keeping the air supply dry, lubricated and properly filtered — will help sustain performance and tool lifespan.
