FAQs

What type of cables can I secure with these staples?

These staples are designed for low-voltage cables with a maximum diameter of 4.5mm, such as telephone, data, or thin speaker wires.

Do I need a special tool to use these staples?

Yes, these staples are specifically designed for use with the Rapid R28 Cable Tacker.

What does 'Diverging Points (DP)' mean?

Diverging points mean the ends of the staple legs are angled to spread outwards when driven, creating a more secure grip in the material.

Are these staples suitable for outdoor use?

The galvanized coating offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to harsh weather may cause corrosion. They are best suited for indoor applications.

Each box contains 1000 pieces of R28 cable staples.

What is the leg length of these staples?

The leg length of the Rapid R28 cable staples is 10mm.

Troubleshooting

Staples not firing correctly

Ensure the Rapid R28 Cable Tacker is properly loaded with R28 staples and that the tool is functioning correctly. Check for any obstructions in the tacker's magazine.

Staples not holding securely

Verify that the cable diameter does not exceed 4.5mm. Ensure you are firing the staple into a suitable material (wood, drywall) and not something too hard or brittle.

Staple legs bending incorrectly

This can occur if fired into extremely hard material or if the tacker is not providing sufficient driving force. Ensure the tacker is in good working order.

Corrosion on staples

Staples have a galvanized coating for protection. If stored in a damp environment, corrosion may occur. Store in a dry place.
