MalcoFBSN Foamboard Stapler

We started a Garage project that will have in floor heat, so to make the process go as smooth as possible, I purchaased this stapler to secure the tubing to the foam board. i have had exceptional luck with the stapler, it works very well, and the operation is totally stand up, no bending over. We used three people to lay the tubing, one to pull the tubing from the roll, one to lay the tubing on the floor in the pattern we laid out, and one followed up with the stapler. Just keep the stapler full of staples and push cleanly thru and you will have no troubles....I did purchase the weight that other suggested, and it makes a Hugh difference, as the staples are very light and the weight helps keep the stack in position.

I put down several thousand feet of pex tubing by myself with this tool. It works great with a couple of caveats.1) Get some sort of weight (I used a cast pipe collar) to sit on top of the 'staples" and push them down for consistent feeding. It'll save you tons of hassle and keep the staples from jamming (most of the time).2) Use decent quality staples. There seems to be a huge difference in quality of staples. The name brand more expensive ones fed perfectly for the most part, while the cheaper ones would jamb repeatedly.You will experience jambs, so just know that and deal with it. Overall it's a GREAT tool and really makes putting down PEX easy. Much easier if you have two people, but doable with one.

This is a great idea to be able to staple tubing down to blue board. When it works, it does a good job. However about every 4th plastic staple gets jammed up in the gun and is a pain to get out. Plan on ordering an additional 25% stick of staples.

When it gets down to about 30 staples in it will start jamming up and its a pain when you are trying to get a job done.

This tool made the process go faster and easier than bending over to twist ties to rebar. We will use it again on the next job.

jammed frequently

Very easy and works well

Product is great. Made my job easier
