Why This Staple Matters
The 5010-C staples are ideal when you need secure hold on lighter materials without over-penetration or damage. The wide ½" crown spreads fastening pressure evenly — minimizing tear-through on soft or flexible materials like insulation, roofing felt, house-wrap, or thin paneling. The 5/16" leg length ensures sufficient penetration for secure hold while avoiding over-driving. This makes the 5010-C an excellent choice for upholstery work, insulation installation, house-wrap, light-duty wood assembly, underlayment, and general finishing tasks.
