Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use this on the outside of the house? I'm wondering if the nails will rust as a result of the weather. ?

The nails are nothing more than a thin sheet of steel. They'll rust because the plastic isn't UV-resistant. Outside electrical wiring should also be protected with metal conduit.

Is it possible to use these to secure extension cords or cable cords? What is it about the Romex that is perplexing me?

Any wire can be held in place with it. Extension cords should only be used to provide power for a short period of time. The term "romex" has come to refer to any standard in-home entertainment system. electrical wire on the wall

Is there a way to find out the gauge (or measured diameter) of the nails included?

Greetings, I placed an order for the PS 225 staple quantity, which includes a 1 inch long, 13mm diameter nail. A 1/2-inch rolex cable can be used with it.

For cat6 ethernet cabling, it worked quite well
5/5

Staple- cable stays in fashion br>br>This size is just about right for normal-sized people. Cat6 ethernet cabling in a jacket. It would be easier with flat cables, but not so much with shielded cables (where you don't want to squash the foil-covered conductors). jacket with lining - increase your size). br>br>While driving into baseboard takes some effort (but isn't difficult), drywall is much easier. I didn't want to have to put all 50 of them in a baseboard, but a couple of them were simple. peasy. Because the nails aren't captive, you can remove one if you don't need both sides pinned down. br>br>Pictured: br>br> Maintaining the position of a cat6 cable. I only nailed the top nail in because of the carpet. If I need to slide the cable, I can do so with some ease. Ignore the soiled, unpainted wall. br>br>Recommended, especially for the price.

I couldn't get it to work for me
3/5

I didn't like these, but they weren't too expensive, so I'm not too disappointed. The nails were too short and easily bent. It seems like it would work in a lot of situations where major renovations or new construction are taking place. However, I was attempting to wire my new recessed lighting in a cramped attic. In the heat, dim light, and cramped spaces, if I didn't hit the nail perfectly, it bent over and became unusable. These were quickly abandoned by me.

For romex, this is the ideal match
5/5

Gardner Bender Insulated Staples is a product that I am very impressed with because of its price and quality. It is extremely simple to use, and I don't understand the negative reviews; I have personally experienced some of the issues they have, and I would argue that they are minor in comparison to the benefits; additionally, you have so many that you can simply use one again for trial and error, and the next time you will know exactly how to handle the situation. Overall, I am pleased with this product's ability to assist me with my project, and it was delivered quickly. Without any reservations, I highly recommend this product.

This method works with ethernet cables
5/5

The ethernet cable was run through this. It's big enough for three cables to fit through. br>br>One thing to remember is to be careful which nail you hammer first, as this will pull the other nail out of square with the wall. If flush against a corner, it can be difficult to fit or align a hammer head. br>br>More color options would be nice.

The nails used are not as hard as the Southern yellow pine
3/5

They drive into a new soft pine 2x4, but if you try to drive it near a knot, southern yellow pine, or old growth wood, it will bend easily. GB used the flimsiest, weakest nails available for some reason. br>br>I strongly advise you to use Morris staples instead. Morris staples, which use nails that are harder than wood, do not bend unless they are poorly driven.

Wires are kept out of the way with this device
5/5

I wanted to secure some cat 5 and speaker wiring to the beams in my basement. These worked perfectly, and the dual nail arrangement allows you to hammer one side at a time, which is more convenient in tight spaces. The cables are held in place by the plastic retainer, which prevents the cables from being cut or ripped.

These are extremely effective
5/5

These are the https clips in black. To help organize my networking closet, I'm using these in drywall. In this (right side of photo), I'm doing two coax or cat6 cables at a time, and they're working great. If you're moving wires around, they can withstand a little tug. While I've made a few organizational changes, none of them have yet to pop out. These are extremely effective. br>br>The black clips are the future, but I think I'd use a staple gun, which is also made by Gardner Bender, because I was loaned one for some electrical work and it was simply faster than hammering a nail.

Works
4/5

This is what I used to secure electrical wall wire (NM 12/2) to the joists. These are nice, but the nails bend so easily that I had to replace them with stainless steel brads. Because I was hanging 120V and 240V (20A, 60 Hz) cabling, the brad length was "long," which I liked. The white part is tough to break, but they can be mashed into "ugly" shapes with relative ease.
