A nail gun is similar to a stapler. It drives and countersinks nails into paneling, carpeting, molding and insulation with a single stroke. It resembles a heavy-duty stapler but will not scratch, mar or dent work surfaces. Nails are 11/32" in length and come in wood-tone colors to match paneling, etc. The nail gun usually comes packaged with a supply of nails and complete instructions for the do-it-yourselfer.


While there is a wide variety of staple types and sizes, each staple gun will accept only a certain range of sizes and styles. In choosing the proper staple leg length for the job, one must consider two things: the thickness of the material to be stapled and its hardness.

Staple-leg lengths range from 3/16" to 9/16". In hardwood, 3/16" to 1/4" penetration is sufficient. Softwood requires up to 3/8" penetration. However, if the staple stands away from the work, it is too long for the gun being used.
