When to choose it

Choose the TT21 when your work calls for JT21 fine-wire staples and you want to push down on the handle to actuate the gun. The forward action changes how you place your hand over the work, which is useful to compare if you usually hold a folded cover in place with your other hand.

Arrow lists three JT21 leg lengths from ¼ to 3/8 inch. Check the depth you need within that family before ordering a box. For a job that calls for heavier T50 flat wire, compare a T50 model with the correct staple range.

Questions about this product

What is the middle JT21 refill size?

Arrow lists the 215 at 5/16 inch. The 214 and 276 are the shorter and longer sizes.

Does forward action change which staples fit?

The mechanism describes how you actuate the tool. The TT21 still takes the documented JT21 family.

Which other Arrow gun takes the same fine-wire family?

The JT21CM also takes JT21 refills. Compare the handle action when deciding between them.
