Why Choose the Josef Kihlberg B560PN?
When packaging departments need to achieve one of the strongest and safest closures available for heavy or high-volume carton production, the Josef Kihlberg B560PN is the ideal pneumatic bottom stapler for the job. Its wide crown staple delivers greater surface contact than narrow-crown fasteners or tape, producing clean, secure box bottoms that hold up through demanding shipping and handling conditions.
The pneumatic drive and spacious ergonomic workstation design make it suitable for continuous use across long production shifts, dramatically reducing the physical strain associated with manual stapling. For industry professionals managing packaging lines where speed, consistency, and operator comfort all matter, this tool is purpose-built to deliver on every front.
The large loading capacity of 250 staples per magazine means fewer interruptions and more continuous output — a significant advantage in high-throughput packaging departments and in industry settings where every minute of downtime has a cost. The hardened steel construction ensures that the tool remains reliable even under the most demanding continuous use conditions.
For operations that have been using the manual Josef Kihlberg B560 and want to achieve higher output with less labor, upgrading to the pneumatic B560PN is a natural next step.
Things to Know Before Buying
- The B560PN requires a reliable compressed air source capable of delivering approximately 70 psi working pressure, with a maximum of 100 psi. Ensure your air supply is clean and properly regulated before use.
- Selecting the correct staple leg length for your carton thickness is essential — improper leg length can result in weak clinch or over-penetration, compromising the quality of your closures.
- Routine maintenance is important to preserve performance over time. Keep the tool clean, inspect safety components regularly, verify clinch quality, and always use manufacturer-recommended staples and parts to protect the integrity of the machine.
- Given the dimensions and weight of approximately 92.6 lbs, the B560PN is best set up as a dedicated workstation stapler within your packaging area rather than a portable tool.
