This non-jamming, magazine-fed stapler operates from a standing position to secure a layout of PEX (polyethylene cross-linked tubing) to a wooden sub-floor or base of foamboard.  A solid, non-stick, one-piece polymer magazine slide directs tool weight over the stapler head for maximum control and comfortable one-handed, one-stroke staple insertion.  Exclusive Malco staple designs secure layouts of 3/8, 1/2 or

5/8-in. (9.5, 2.7 or 15.1 mm) PEX.  PEX-to-wood staples feature sure-gripping, ring-shank steel nail inserts in a non-abrasive plastic collar.  Staple designs for securing PEX to a base of 1-in. or 2-in. (25.4 and 50.8 mm) foamboard are a one-piece, all-plastic design with molded-in dual barbs for increased bite.

Easily secures 7-Ga. (4.5 mm) wire to 9-Ga. (3.8 mm) chain link fence.

One of the features of the HRP5 is an auto-feed magazine that ensures uninterrupted operation.  The Malco 9-Gauge (3.8mm) Collated Aluminum Hog Rings, or Malcos’ exclusive 9-Gauge collated Steel Rings that insert quickly into the magazine, which accepts a 25-count loading strip of the collated hog rings.  The long handles will save time and effort with plenty of leverage and reach.  The plunger feed automatically sets up each ring.  There’s no need to rotate the magazine away from the fence to set the ring since the clinching mechanism brings the hog ring forward to the pliers’ nose, which then easily captures and secures the heavy 7-gauge (4.5 mm) tension wire to the 9-gauge fencing.  This unique overlap clinch design of the rings will produce a stronger connection, unmatched by any other hog ring.  A 500-pack of the 9-Gauge Hog Rings will secure 1,000 feet (305 m) of tension wire in just a fraction of the time that other installation methods require.  For safe and easy storage, just fold down the pliers’ magazine.

Malco 9-Gauge Collated Aluminum Rings, No. HRA5, are manufactured of a weather-resistant 6061-T94 or 5052-H38 alloy.  Exclusive Malco 9-Gauge Galvanized Steel Rings No. HRS5 feature a thick, weather-resistant Class 3 Coating per ASTM A641.

Guillotines Generate Minimal Dust!

A guillotine-style Angle Cutter and dedicated straight-cutting Guillotine Shear offer a choice of two quiet-quality solutions for cutting fiber cement siding planks while generating minimal dust.  And both of these easy-operating manual shears make efficient, ultra-clean, precise cuts without compressing the 5/16” (8 mm) trim edge of the plank.

For making 3/12 to 12/12 pitch cuts in fiber cement siding, the Model No. FCC7 Angle Cutter is the easy answer.  Just scribe the desired angle on the siding plank and feed it into the guillotine blade as you cut.  The blade is anchored above the cutter’s large work plate to allow through-clearance for cutting any roof pitch in siding planks up to 12” (305 mm) wide.  For simply cutting planks to length, a 90-degree fence installs to the left or right of the blade.  The operator merely loosens a knob to swing the fence out of the way when making angled cuts. When mounted on saw horses at roughly knee level, the Angle Cutter’s easily accessible blade-handle allows the operator to still work over the table for plenty of leverage.  This cutter also operates at ground level to eliminate need to support siding planks.

The No. FCC4 Guillotine is specialized for making straight cuts in 8-1/4” (210 mm) wide fiber cement siding plank.  An exclusive support plate, with board stop, offers superior stability for this type of shear and ensures straight, square cuts every time.  Designed for operating at ground level, optimal handle leverage reduces user fatigue.
