Minerallac I12A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can these steel cable staples be used on BX or MC cable, or only Romex?
Both. The I12A is listed for sheathed non-metallic cable and the description also calls out BX, MC and other cable types. Because the staple is non-insulated steel, there is no plastic saddle between the staple and the armor, which is fine on metal-jacketed cable but means you should avoid over-driving on NM so the sheath is not crushed.
2) What is the difference between insulated and non-insulated cable staples, and which should I use?
A non-insulated staple like the I12A is bare wire-formed steel that contacts the cable jacket directly. That gives a firm grip and is the usual choice for armored cable (BX, MC) and general rough-in. An insulated staple carries a plastic or nylon saddle across the crown, which spreads the load on soft NM jacket and is preferred where an inspector or spec calls for jacket protection. If your job spec does not require insulation, the bare steel version installs the same way with a hammer.
3) Do I need a tool or stapler gun to install Minerallac I12A staples?
No gun needed. These are hammer-in staples, driven by hand into wood studs, plates and joists. No pre-drilling, no screws, no separate saddle. That also means they are intended for wood framing, not for concrete or steel studs.
4) Is one staple enough to hold two cables stacked together?
The I12A is sized to one 3 conductor #10, #12 or #14 cable within its 1-1/4 by 9/16 inch opening. Stacking two cables under a single staple risks over-compressing the jackets, which is exactly what the install guidance warns against. Run each cable its own staple, or use a multi-cable support where two runs have to share a point.
5) Are Minerallac cable staples made in the USA for projects with domestic sourcing requirements?
Yes, the I12A is manufactured in the United States. That matters on public and institutional work where domestic-content sourcing is written into the contract, and it is a documented attribute on the part rather than a marketing claim.
6) What material and finish are these staples, and will they rust in a damp crawlspace?
Construction is wire-formed steel with a silver finish. Bare steel is intended for dry interior framing work. For persistently wet or exterior-exposed locations, a corrosion-resistant support is the better call.
7) How many staples come in a pack of Minerallac I12A?
The I12A is packaged 100 staples per pack, which is the single orderable configuration of this part.
