In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

The Metabo HPT 16 Ga. Open Magazine 1 in. Wide Crown Stapler is built for precision, speed, and consistent hold on trim, cabinetry, and lightweight upholstery projects. With a 1-inch wide crown and a 16-gauge staple, it strikes the perfect balance between strong fasteners and minimal door-jrame distortion on delicate materials.

Key features tailored for serious woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts:

  • Gauge and crown: 16-gauge staples with a 1-inch crown deliver sturdy fastening for trim, decorative molding, and thin paneling without splitting wood.
  • Open magazine, top loading: Easy jam clearing and fast reloading thanks to the open magazine design and top-loading operation.
  • Magazine capacity: Holds up to 157 staples, reducing reload interruptions on longer projects.
  • Fastener range: Accepts 1" to 2" fasteners, giving you flexibility for a variety of applications from baseboards to light framing.
  • Operating pressure: Pneumatic tool designed for a practical 70–120 psi range, so you can dial in the exact depth and seating for your material.
  • Weight and balance: Weighing 4.7 lb, it’s light enough for comfortable use over extended sessions while still delivering reliable driving power.
  • Collation type: Paper strip collated staples ensure smooth feeding and consistent spacing throughout a job.
  • Warranty: 5-year limited parts and labor gives you long-term confidence on upkeep and performance.

Why this stapler stands out

Not all staplers are created equal when it comes to trim and finish work. The Metabo HPT open magazine design minimizes downtime—clear jams quickly and reload with ease—so you can stay on the task rather than fighting the tool. The 1" wide crown is ideal for securing thin trims and moldings without crowding the wood, while the 16-gauge staples provide a strong, durable hold that stands up to everyday use in cabinetry and upholstery projects.

Ideal applications

  • Baseboards, casing, and decorative molding installations where a clean, unobtrusive fastener is desired
  • Light upholstery and furniture trim that benefits from a discrete staple with solid shear strength
  • Thin panel backing or workshop cabinetry where precise stapling helps avoid splitting
  • General interior carpentry and craft projects requiring reliable 1"–2" staples

Practical tips for optimal results: set your air pressure within the 70–120 psi range to achieve the desired countersink without tearing the material, and rely on the top-loading, open magazine for quick reloads during longer jobs. With its combination of versatility, ease of maintenance, and a substantial 157-staple capacity, this stapler is a reliable companion for professionals and serious hobbyists tackling trim, cabinetry, and light upholstery tasks.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
