The industrial stapler became the necessary tool for the modern builder only several decades ago, but already now it is difficult to imagine how earlier people did without this functional and convenient adaptation.
Construction staplers which are also called furniture or skobozagibatel, are separated into three types of devices – mechanical, pneumatic and electric by means of which it is possible to repair or construct the necessary thing, having just loaded treubuyushchiyesya brackets.
Principles of operation of the mechanical stapler
This version of the tool is the most widespread, owing to the smaller size of the price, than at other types of the equipment, and popular at small construction and homeworks.
Its action is made thanks to the spring force which is released by means of operation of the lever set in motion by human hand. The same spring after expansion also hammers bracket into surface. Choosing this device, it is worth remembering that, for example, the female hand can not always cope with the stapler if works are conducted with rather firm and thick surface. Pressing of the necessary force and sharpness requires the corresponding movement and power of muscles of hand. Low speed of operation of the mechanical tool operating not by means of electricity also belongs to one more minuses, except fatigue of the person working with it.
Therefore professional upholsterers or builders nevertheless give preference to two other analogs.
Stapler operation parameters
Force of necessary blow depends not only on properties of surface, but also on width of the used bracket. Ordinary, its standard maximum parameters – 4-14 millimeters.
Brackets can go also complete with the bought stapler and also to be got separately in specialized shop.
It is worth paying attention to characteristics in the instruction to the stapler. For example, on the tool it can be written - "4-8". The first digit - design minimum feature of the stapler, and the second – its maximum at impact strength. Therefore it is necessary to take this parameter as in the range from 4 to 8 the impact strength can be reduced into account, but not to increase and chuck in bracket 8, – it will not turn out 10 or more. In case of need, it is better to buy the tool with range of 4-10 or 4-12. Influence of the same parameter can be felt also in work with different types of materials. So in pine or fir-tree board the stapler with parameter to 8 with ease will force down brackets, but chipboard or firm tree (oak and others) will appear to it literally not "on teeth".
Other features
Depending on type of the required works, it is possible to buy mechanical staplers cable (for fixing of wires), packing (not only hammer, but also completely bend bracket), the stapler - nail gun (hammers not brackets, but nails into surface), teker (for V-shaped brackets), the stapler-zaklepochnik (has also function of connection of surfaces rivets). Important aspect is also safety of devices. So more expensive models of the tool are equipped with system at which the bracket takes off only in case of contact of the stapler with surface and if just to keep it in air – the device will not work.
