Arrow PT50 Pneumatic Stapler, Red

I bought this Arrow PT50 air staple gun after trying an electric Tacwise gun that also shoots the same T50 / 140 size staples.I will be using it to staple polytunnel plastic to lots of wooden frames, so the wide surface area of the T50/140 staples should help to ensure that it doesn't punch through the plastic.The electric one wasn't able to drive even 8mm staples fully into a piece of pine, so I returned it.The PT50 is a quality piece of kit.The air connector is a bit of a strange size, not sure what it is but I replaced it with a pcl quick connect fitting which has a 1/4" bsp male thread. The thread on the tool isn't bsp but it threads in well enough with a few wraps of ptfe tape.I will be using it mostly with 8mm staples and it drives them amazingly well compared to the electric stapler.The bump fire feature is really great too.Other reviewers have said that the magazine release button is too easily pressed by accident, but I haven't found it to be a problem at all.This comes in a cardboard box without a plastic carry case. I think you can buy them with a carry case, but its not this listing.Apart from the strange sized airline threads and the lack of carry case, this is a very well made staple gun.

The Arrow PT50 is an excellent little staple gun.Much better than any corded version I've tried.It takes readily available 140 type / T50 staples, that can be found almost anywhere.The quick connector is (I believe) 1/4" NPT. An American fitting which is not compatible with any UK fittings.It can be replaced with a 1/4" BSPT Euro fitting, but the thread pitch is not identical, so a good wrapping of PTFE is required and do not tighten up hard, as the taper may cause damage to the socket.A better bet is to get a 1/4" NPT to 1/4" BSPT adapter and then use the 1/4" quick connector of your choice.I choose to use PCL XF fittings as they are high quality and compatible with the Euro fitting commonly found in the UK.

Amazing👍👍👍

Whacks them in.Easy to load.Can bump fire.Works with Tacwise Type 140 staples.Nice balance in the hand.Doesn't need much air.

Good value for a recognised name worked well used it to staple weed control fabric onto a wooden frame making planting pockets for living wall.

I bought this to fire 6mm staples in to hard plastic to recover my motorcycle seat. Brilliant, no problem at all. Trigger is very sensitive so mind your fingers.

Very pleased with this stapler on a refurbishment project I’m working on. Staples easily available locally as well.Much better than a battery version which broke after a few thousand staples

This is a great light weight staple gun
