Tacwise hand tacker "PRO" Z4-140 / 4 in 1 (EX RP Z3-140)

The stapler is in the manual staplers and nailers category. This means you supply the force by hand. For jobs in a place without a power outlet, or for work where you just want to quickly fasten something, this is often more practical than an electric or pneumatic tool.

What do you use a hand stapler for?

You use a hand stapler to fasten relatively thin and light materials, such as foil, vapour-permeable or vapour-retarding layers, textiles, upholstery and cable trunking. The designation 4 in 1 indicates that the stapler can handle several types of staples or nails. Which types exactly, you can read in the product specifications or ask Proffix, so you can be sure to order the right fasteners.

Hand stapler pro z4-140 in practice

With a hand stapler, the material you fire into partly determines how well the staples hold. In softwood this generally works better than in hardwood or sheet material. Therefore always test on an offcut first. Also pay attention to the right length and width of the staple for your surface, and keep your hands and fingers away from the discharge opening.

What should you look out for when choosing?

With a hand stapler, look at the type of staple or nail that fits, the grip and the weight during long work, and whether you can also use it for short jobs. If you often have many consecutive fastenings, an electric or pneumatic machine from the same category may be a better fit. For occasional work or on location without a power supply, a hand stapler is usually more than enough.
