Rapid 20726010 R19 Fine Wire Hammer Tacker,Chrome

Needed to install some fiberglass batt insulation and I have a hammer stapler but it is a very heavy one, not like the ones I see the professional insulators use. At first I purchased a Bostich based on the pictures but it turned out to be just about as heavy as the one I already have. I returned that one and got this and it is the ticket for insulation. Light and nimble, never jammed once. Uses very thin staples, but it sinks them every time no problem. Definitely happy with this tool.

My wife says this works well for her classroom poster boards and has had no problems using it at all. Quality- It seems like it will last.

I have been using this stapler since 2000 and it has never failed. The staples are cheaper and much lighter than other competitors. They are similar to the staples used in a paper stapler. This tacker takes much less effort to swing especially in tight places. I never use my Arrow tacker anymore unless I run out of staples for this one.

Amazing stapler for siding but likes to break alot, but so does every other stapler.

I've been using Rapid 19's for over 20 years. It's so easy to load up 4 or 5 of them and run through a big job switching as they empty, then doing one mass reload at the end. The light design allows for carrying multiple tackers with less weight than the other heavy and cumbersome tackers on the market. They are great for tacking asphalt paper, housewrap, and tyvek; as well as 1/4" fanfold insulation. Heavy daily use will eventually wear them out but well worth the cost for the number of staples you can put through them.

I love this tool. It gets used a lot and still going strong after years of use. Easy to use.

I'm a professional home builder and purchased this Rapid 19 Tack Hammer because of it's small size and lighter weight, the original Rapid tach hammers made in Sweden used to be a quality tool, not no more! In the past 3 months I have gone through 2 of these staple hammers, they get jammed up and break so easily they are a complete waste of money! I thought I might have got a bad one the first time around but the same thing happened to the second within the 1st week of use! Try the larger size Rapid RC11 if you have to buy this brand but stay far away from the Rapid 11.
