BOSTITCH Stapler, Outward Clinch, Stapling Tacker 14MM Max (T6-8OC2)

This is the tool you need to staple fiberboard duct together, when putting together plenum or mixing boxes ect. Nice tool!

I sent back the Arrow version. It broke on the first row of staples I put into it. The adjustment grub screw stripped out of the cheap beer can metal they cut threads in. The Bostich has no adjustment, it just works. I am on my second box of staples (you need their special staples for this gun). The staples I am shooting from this gun are much thicker than the staples I am pulling from my 35 year old duct wrap though. Gets the job done stapling fiberglass duct wrap back onto the ducts after opening them up, taping them, putting mastic on the tape, closing them back, putting mastic on the seam, wraping the old stuff in new silver bubble wrap, taping and putting mastic on. We can feel the difference inside with heat and AC. Buy this on if you are airsealing your house. It just works great.

Good stapler. There are rare jams, perhaps 1 over 100 staples. I would had preferred to have zero jams but 1 every 100 staples is perfectly acceptable.

I did what I needed it to do (stapled some ac ductboard).seems pretty durable. I didn’t get any actual jams but did get a couple of mis-staples that didn’t go deep enough, but it may have been user-error pulling the trigger too quickly. Otherwise, no major issues for me. Will update if any issues in the future.

I found it very challenging when ordering to know whether I was getting the right product or not. To clarify, you want model T6-8OC2. You do not want model T6-8. That model is not an outward clinch stapler. Here's why it's confusing - the two products look EXACTLY alike. On one side of the stapler they even both just say 'T6'. Why make it so hard for the consumer? I received the correct stapler. In my case, as seen in the picture, it clearly has the correct model number listed on one side, and the box had the correct model number too. STCR5019 staples do work with this model. It worked ok for stapling some HVAC insulation, although some of the staples came loose immediately afterwards. Perhaps the staples I used were not long enough.

STCR50191/2-1M These are the staples you will need, don’t fall for the suggested “often purchased together”, like I did. I purchased this stapler to use with duct board for a single job. I never used duct board before, never used an outward stapler . I purchased the wrong staples, no place locally carried them and by the time I got the correct ones I had finished the job without.

I ordered one and what came was clearly labeled T6-8 which is not an outward clinch model. The bar code on the bottom (of the badly torn box) read "outward clinch stapler". So, I ordered a replacement. Again I received a T6-8 with that same third party stickered over bar code that read "outward clinch", so seems intentional. The box top should read T6-8OC2 for the outward clinch model. Super annoyed. I'll find the right thing somewhere else.

I had an old Bostitch for nearly 15 years. It worked so well that there was no need to get a different brand. I am pleased with the construction and ease of use for this stapler. Other guys on the jobsite have different brands and I have tried them, but I like the Bostitch the best.

très bon articles puisque je m'en sert tous les jours dans ma profession, très content de mon achats

Worked great! Added insulation to duct work.

The stapler arrived, seems to work on. I do have an issue with paying full price for product that was obviously returned, with extensively damaged packaging. I normally store things like this in its original packaging to keep it clean..... I guess not this time. The product should have been sold as open box item, and discounted.
