Material: wood, soft sheet materials
(e.g. paper or fabric)

A manual staple gun drives staples straight into a substrate without folding them, and is therefore not limited to a certain thickness of the wood you attach your sheet material to. Use it where small nails would work, but you want to be faster... Uses type 53 staples of length 6-14 mm.
