Anyone made a good for for stuff like installing kraft faced insulation?

Something I can run like a nail gun. Pull the trigger and tap away?

Thanks!
 
Way back over 20 years ago when I framed houses for a living we used Senco products (nailers and staplers). I remember them standing up to every day use and abuse and they were very good tools.
 
I should have clarified that.

Something that shoots t-50 type.

Not the narrow crown (1/4”) 1”-1 1/2” type.

I did finally find and order a senco one one that uses the 3/8 crown up to 5/8”.

I have a senco finish nailer that I have never had an issue with.
 
Tools like that are interesting. I have bought / used Senco for all of my life. Now that I am in my 70's, I don't need a tool that will last 30 years. A Harbor Freight wide crown stapler let's me repair some sagging insulation in my shop and the cost does not break the bank.
It all depends on a man's perspective.

Slap it!


I have a heavy duty arrow upholstery staple gun. It shoots into wood just fine.

As a bonus it's being putting up targets for me for 8 years, and I was only getting 2 years out of the standard model.
 
…But the extra added wrist movement of a hammer-tacker is so egregious that it would justify setting up a compressor and dragging hoses around … seriously, WTH??!
Also, where you’re at, do you need craft faced, or can you stuff unfaced in the cavity and pick up the perm-rating in the primer/paint?

Kraft.

12’ wall in a 40x60 and a basement right now.

Will use it for the vent panels that go in the inside between the rafters for when you blow in insulation.

Probably other projects as well.
 
Shoots t -50s up to 9/16ths.
