Jronman Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 would be cool to see a stapler for things like Tyvek and kraft faced insulation. Would be tricky to get compact with a slide pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be tricky to get compact with a slide pack. how about the new carbon fiber stapler? i use it for house wrap. its lightweight. i recommend using at least a 3/8 staple. the shorter staples seemed to "fall over" more. http://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-Carbon-Fiber-Composite-Hammer-Tacker-DWHT75900/300240997 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D W Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Does anyone know what the story is with the DCD791 in Oz? I just purchased the 796, somewhat because I couldn't easily find a 791 skin (other than US ebay and Melbourne tool sales, which are imported 20v max). No mention of it in the new brochure either.

I prefer air staplers. much faster in my opinion and doesn't require swinging but if the air hose was replaced with a battery it would be even better.

Framer joe Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 That carbon fiber stapler is great. ...we have a couple. Yes the air staplers are small , lighter( maybe,) faster ? Depends who is using them..roofers are not going to carry a roofing gun and an air stapler ...they swing baby...and that carbon fiber is strong, built well and ridiculously light.......... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 If you had a 20v stapler or a hand stapler which would you use? Atleast for me I have found air staplers easier and better to use. I would guess someone who is really good at a swing hand stapler would be as fast as some one with an air stapler but for a rookie like me I'm faster using air stapler.

Framer joe Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 If I'm laying down ice/ water barrier to protect roof sheathing I'd use a swing stapler,,same if I was shingling a wall.....the convenience of having it hang on your pouch is a time saver, taking off one gun to put on another gun (stapler) then reattaching the siding gun and so on is a money killer...... ........bowever stapling down typar or tyvec on a newly built wall an air stapler is faster because the wall is laying on the deck......of course we don't use typar or tyvec for years...we use Zip Plywood with Zip tape on the seams.... .......now if someone can make a 20v stapler smaller then the Milwaukee and fast ...maybe you got something there...

Framer joe Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Zip is king....the plywood is coated with a water shield ,tape the seams properly as to shed water and they seams hold up well,like months if needed before shingles go on. Red coating for roof ply and Green coated for walls...the exposed nail head generally don't leak (unless you miss a rafter when nailing) ...it does cost more 25%...but you save money buy not leaving exposed cdx ply to the sun and weather...unless your roofer shingles right away...as you know exposed ply ,buckles and delaminates........

overanalyze Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Get a Stinger manual stapler. Awesome tool for housewrap and roofing underlayment!! The caps do jamb a litte bit even with that way faster and easier than hand nailing or dragging a hose around. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Stinger-CH38-Cap-Hammer-0136400/203583567?cm_mmc=Shopping%7cG%7cBase%7cPLA%7cD25T%7cTools&gclid=CjwKCAjwhYLLBRBIEiwAtFeED-V6AKygFsPfwPqYKlE_RCLbWkzhj4_Spq8UWnCAfv4jG40p6_pWZhoCStkQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.dsSent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
