Thank you for contacting us.br>Hello,br>Thank you for contacting us. These aren't compatible with staplers or cable bosses. These are staples that have been pound in.
It should be able to handle stacked cables, in my opinion. It shouldn't be too tight, but it should be simple enough to complete. br>Painting white? Either white out or paint would need to be done by hand.
Your question appears to be about whether or not the staple is sufficiently strong. I've had no problems using these staples on 12 gauge Romex. 8/3, on the other hand, would necessitate something more substantial, such as steel screw holders of the appropriate size, as this is a fairly large wire for a stove, dryer, or other appliance, and I'd prefer something more durable than staples.

I like the end result because you can be confident that the wire is secure and that you will not nick the cable you are securing. They are a little more expensive than regular staples, but I find them to be easier to install and remove if necessary. The thin nails in old growth lumber or older hard studs should be handled with caution to avoid bending. By getting under one side and prying up with your big diagonal cutters, you can free the cable and pry up the other side.
These are what I bought to do some wiring in my garage. I bought the very large package because I plan to remodel my kitchen and laundry room next year, and the price was almost the same as a small pack locally. These work great, and you won't have to worry about crushing the wires because they can fit two separate cables side by side. Perfect!.
These staples are far more versatile than traditional metal wire staples. Metal staples have a larger diameter and are therefore more difficult to drive into the ground. They're also more difficult to remove if that becomes necessary. The nails on these plastic staples are thinner and sharper, making them easier to drive into the ground. As a result, pounding them in requires less force, and removing them is simpler.
I bought this pack because I needed two (2) staples but didn't feel like going to the hardware store. Can you believe I used every single one of them on the first day? I ran around the house looking for cords and other items to "staple" down because it was so simple and scratched an itch I didn't even realize I had for neatness. These should be bought. Place them in strategic locations.
My son purchased these for a project he was working on for me, and he said they were exactly what he expected when he used them. They are someone I would recommend to others.
I used a few of these staples to secure some romex to the joists in my basement. I did have a couple of nails bend, but that was most likely due to my hammer's'mis hits. ' They are, in my opinion, well worth the money.
The nails bend in the same way they do when you buy one of those cheap dollar store picture hanging kits. For the price, the nails bend far too easily; for the same money, you can get much better quality elsewhere.
Martin erected a steel structure from the ground up. So far, I've used approximately 1000 of them. It's simple to align and hammer in with just one finger. I used every size of romex they make, and these staples were a perfect fit for all of them. It saves a lot of time.
