When to choose it

Choose the manual T50 when your upholstery job calls for Arrow’s heavy-duty flat-wire T50 staple family and you want to choose among six listed leg lengths. It is a direct option for fastening fabric to wood where the nose can reach the attachment line and you can brace the front of the tool.

Start with the exact material stack where you will staple. A folded corner can need a different leg length from a single layer, and the T50 manual also accounts for wood hardness. A refill such as Arrow 506 gives you a 3/8-inch leg within this family. For a forward-push fine-wire tool, compare the TT21 and its separate JT21 refills.

Questions about this product

Can I use the JT21 staples left from my craft stapler?

Use the T50 family with this tool. JT21 belongs to the compatible fine-wire tools such as the TT21.

What can I change if a staple stays raised?

The T50 manual suggests trying the next shorter supported leg length when the crown stands away from the work.

Does a thicker fold always require the longest staple?

Compare the folded thickness with the hardness and remaining thickness of the wood. Choose from the model’s permitted lengths.
