Briscon SN-40-IB-SS-100 Stainless Steel Insulated Cable Staple, Blue, 1/2" x 1", 100-Pack

The Briscon SN-40-IB-SS-100 combines a stainless steel staple with a blue LDPE plastic insulator, giving corrosion resistance for treated lumber and exterior work plus a plastic buffer between the staple and the cable jacket. The 1/2" wide by 1" long SN-40 size holds 14/2 and 14/3 armored (AC) cable, 14/2 and 14/3 metal clad (MC) cable, 14/2 through 10/3 non-metallic sheathed (NM) cable, and 14/2 and 12/2 underground feeder (UF) cable. Sharp, burr free legs drive straight into wood without splitting it. Sold in a 100-pack box and made in the USA.
