Senco SFW09-C F"E Wire 22ga. 3/8" Crown, 5/8" Fine Wire Stapler

I needed a stapler that could handle wider crown staples instead of just the 1/4 in. crown. This stapler uses 3/8 in. crown staples which makes a huge difference depending on what you are using it for. I am currently using it to install un-faced insulation and a plastic vapor barrier. Other staplers that only support 1/4 in. crown staples would just shoot straight through the plastic like a nail which is why a wider crown staple is needed.Uses very little air. My compressor cycles on every 5 or more staple loads to fill with air and only needs a setting of 50 to operate.One reviewer complained of the safety lever on the trigger which must be held down to fire. I personally like it because I usually just hang the gun and hose over my shoulder while positioning what I am stapling. I can do this without worry of the gun accidently firing and putting a staple in my back. Besides, the safety lever does not interfere with the natural way of holding the gun and pulling the trigger.It is very light weight and has a comfortable spongy handle.Compared to other staplers it is rather small which makes it easy to get into tight spots.The Senco website is very informative as well. Just select your model and it will tell you exactly what staples are compatible with your stapler and where you can buy them. Basically you can get the staples at any hardware store. I got mine from Home Depot.

It staples fine as a Senco should, but I really hate the double action trigger. Since i use several staple guns on a job (long nose, short nose, long staples, short, 1" and 1.5" staple guns) and this is the only one with the safety, it gets on my nerves! That's all. Maybe next time, I will take some valium before working on chairs!

This is a high quality piece of professional equipment. I am using it to attach 1/16" mahogany plywood to beech wood stringers in a large model boat. The idea is that the staples hold the wood in place while the epoxy glue cures. The staples go in cleanly with very little impulse imparted to the boat stringers. Staple force can be adjusted with variations in air pressure as stated in the instructions. It will staple to its full 3/8" depth, so it can easily staple 1/8" plywood. Too little pressure results in the stapler skipping staples (misfire). Staples are very easy to load. The tool is robust and seems as if it will give very long service in home/hobby use. The tool is lightweight and easy to get into position, even odd positions.

Purchased this to replace the fabric on a bunch of old speaker grills and it works great. It's small and light and can place staples in tight places. Out of about 500 staples fired so far, only a handful of misfires.

Great for home upholstery

Upholstery

My neighbor is the reason I purchased this wire stapler. I used to borrow this tool to put up new screening on my back porch. The new one works just as well as the older model and I am very pleased with this stapler on how it works, and how it feels in my hand. Excellent tool.

I enjoy upholstery work (strictly amateur) but was frustrated with the electric stapler I had. I decided to invest some money in a pneumatic stapler and small compressor because my husband assured it was worth the money. He was so right. This SENCO stapler is light weight with a very easy trigger and safety mechanism. I have arthritis in my hands but have no trouble at all handling this. I love the fact that I can hold the stapler a bit away from the material to tack things in place. I also had to call the customer help line twice for some advice on getting set up. I found them to be helpful with detailed explanations and questions on usage to be sure I had the correct hose, etc. It is true what they say, "the right tool for the right job", and this is the best tool I have.
