Meet the Gardner Bender 3/4 in W Plastic Insulated Cable Staple, a purpose-built fastening solution for secure, damage-free NM cable installations. This 250-pack is designed to hold Romex, UF and other non-metallic cables firmly in place while protecting insulation from the rigors of installation and daily wear.
What sets this staple apart
- a plastic insulated surface shields cable insulation from nicks and scuffs, reducing the risk of damage over time.
- zinc-plated finish on the metal frame delivers corrosion resistance in typical framing environments, ensuring longevity behind walls, in basements, or in exposed runs.
- 1-1/4" leg length with a 3/4" width delivers a secure bite without over-penetrating insulation or framing.
- classic white finish blends with most wood framing while remaining easy to inspect during installations.
- chisel point design slides in with less effort, paired with a standard fastening tool for rapid, consistent fastening.
- a bagged 250-pack keeps jobs stocked and orderly on-site or in a workshop.
- ideal for securing Romex/UF and other non-metallic cables along studs, joists, and behind drywall or paneling.
