Thomas & Betts 17-120TB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are these cable staples steel or plastic?
Steel. The T&B 17 series staple is a steel cable staple, so it holds its set in a stud and will not get brittle in an unconditioned attic or crawl space the way a plastic-bodied strap can. Steel does mean the staple itself is conductive, so it has to be driven to seat against the cable, not through it.
2) Can I use steel cable staples on NM cable in a residential rough-in?
Yes, that is the intended use. The T&B 17 series steel staples are made for securing and supporting cable during electrical rough-in and at box entries, in residential, commercial, and industrial work. They are a securing device only, so the staple does not replace a connector where cable enters a box.
3) Do these staples have knockouts or mounting holes for screws?
No. Number of knockouts is zero, and there are no pre-punched screw holes. It is a drive-in staple, so you set it with a hammer into wood framing. If your spec calls for a screw-fastened strap, you want a one-hole or two-hole cable strap instead of this staple.
4) How are these T&B cable staples sold, each or by the box?
The catalog selling unit of measure is each, and the pack is a 100 piece quantity of staples. For a rough-in crew that means one order line covers a typical single-family wiring run without counting individual pieces.
5) Are these Thomas & Betts staples made in the USA?
Country of origin on the T&B steel cable staple is the United States, which matters if you are bidding public or federally funded work with domestic sourcing language in the spec.
