Metallics JCST100I – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes do the Metallics JCST100I insulated cable staples hold?
The JCST100I insulated cable staple is sized for #10, #12 and #14 conductors, which covers the common 14/2, 12/2 and 10/2 NM cable runs in residential and light commercial rough-in. The staple itself measures 1-1/4 by 9/16 inches.
2) What makes an insulated cable staple different from a plain steel staple?
The JCST100I is a steel and plastic staple: the steel legs drive into the stud and a plastic saddle sits across the cable instead of bare metal. That saddle is what protects the jacket when the staple is driven home, so it's the choice where you're worried about crushing or nicking NM cable. A plain steel staple is cheaper but puts metal directly on the sheath.
3) How many staples come in a jar of Metallics JCST100I?
They ship 100 staples per jar, and the jar of 100 is also the order minimum, so one jar is the smallest buy. The jar weighs 0.71 lbs.
4) Will a 1-1/4 inch insulated staple hold two cables side by side?
No. At 9/16 inch across the crown, the JCST100I is sized to one cable in the #10 to #14 range. Stacking two cables under it will either prevent the staple seating flat or compress the jackets. Run a second staple, or step up to a wider multi-cable strap.
5) Are Metallics JCST100I cable staples Buy American and ARRA compliant for a government job?
Both flags are marked compliant on the JCST100I, for ARRA and for Buy American. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your spec requires a single named origin on the submittal, that is the detail to pin down with the order.
6) Can I get insulated cable staples in a size other than 1-1/4 x 9/16?
Metallics builds other sizes and pack quantities of this insulated cable staple, available by request. The stocked configuration is the 1-1/4 by 9/16 inch staple in a 100-count jar under part number JCST100I.
7) What is the Metallics part number I should order for insulated cable staples for 12 AWG Romex?
Order Metallics JCST100I. It's the insulated cable staple covering #10, #12 and #14 wire, supplied 100 per jar.
