Klein Tools' Loose Cable Stapler (Cat. No. 450-100) drives insulated staples for voice, data, video and NM non-metallic sheathed cable, and works with various types of media including speaker wire, CAT3 to CAT6A, and coax RG59 to RG6Q cabling.

Klein Tools has introduced its Loose Cable Stapler (Cat. No. 450-100), a tool featuring a forward-action design for stable and secure installation of wire and cable.

The Loose Cable Stapler drives insulated staples for voice, data, video, NM (Romex) nonmetallic sheathed cable, employing forward action for stability and single-handed operation.

The tool works with various types of cables including speaker wire, CAT3 to CAT6A cabling, coax RG59 to RG6Q cables, and Romex 1402 to Remex 12-3G wires.

The model 450-100 works exclusively with Klein Tools insulated staples (Cat. Nos. 450-001, 450-002, 450-003) and is adjustable to multiple sizes of Klein Tools staples including 1/4’’, 5/16’’, and 11/32’. A channel on the stapler's mounting face guides and protects cable from damage.

With a cast aluminum body for durability, the jam-resistant tool's secured staple push rod stays attached during use.

Other key attributes include an adjustable force setting lever, a two-level cable guide for small and large cable which prevents stapling into the cable, and an ergonomic, cushion-grip handle.

An included clip for attaching the stapler to a belt or tool bag mounts to either side of the tool. Sold separately in 300 qty. packs, the manufacturer's associated UL-listed, insulated staples secure flat and round cables.

“Klein Tools’ new Loose Cable Stapler was designed to be adaptable, adjusting to multiple staple sizes and to be used with a single hand,” comments Karen Alpan, product manager at Klein Tools. “While there are many options for cast aluminum cable staplers on the market, Klein Tools’ model is the only one available that handles multiple insulated staple sizes in one tool.”
