Company will no longer be using T25 staple gun/staples. They will not be supplying them anymore & will not be in tackle boxes. Company does not want T25 staple gun to be used for any work from now on. The T59 staple gun/staples are to be used instead.

First of all,"tackle boxs"?...havent seen those since spectrum
Second of all anyone claiming that staples are ok for signal transmission of any kind is a mo–n,and lazy.
HOWEVER ive seen plenty of genius' pinch the cable w overtightened flex clips.
Gotta bunch of cases of RB2s and RB4s that were "outlawed" 10 years ago to sell you though....
Stop complaining and go to Home depot and buy the staples,its that easy
Thats ok. Ill just lay it on the floor. Way faster. No issued supplies. No neat installs. No reason to complain or try an fight it. Ill use silicone instead. Its clear an will ruin every wall it hits .lol
Did that dumb@$$ really say to use cable clips/Rokas instead of a T25 staple gun to run indoor wire???? Yep, he sure did. Not good dude, not good.
Hey slick, u do know that those are for outdoor use right??? I can’t even believe I have to tell you that. What the hell are contractors doing on this site? Go find another house to destroy.
If done properly there’s no problem at all. I agree, it looks much better than any gun & it’s the only one we would ever use. Impedance, are you serious. C’mon Man U should know better than that. Your obviously a supervisor with little or no field experience, but you keep telling yourself that it causes impedance if it makes you feel special🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
It fits perfect yes but it isn’t intended for catv cable. 20years and no knowledge of impedance?
I don’t know what the hell your talking about. I’ve been here for over 20yrs & have never seen anyone use anything but the T25 for coax. Cleaner, faster, & more efficient staple gun. Fits perfectly over RG6 cable. I don’t understand why they would do this. I guess common sense will not be tolerated here.
You should be using cable clips/Roka’s Not a staple gun anyway ya lazy b–tard.
Those staples were never intended for use in the cable industry. It’s similar to using twist on fittings. If you knew anything about cable you would know why.
Uhhhhhhhhh, hello!!! That’s the only freaking staple gun anyone uses. So yeah, I’m definitely worried. The two depots here have definitely stopped ordering them. Haven’t seen them in tackle boxes for few months. We were also told by both supervisors not to use them if we have them. They want us to use the T59 instead. Go run a wire along the inside of your house with a T59 & tell me you like the way it looks. It looks horrendous & eventually will lead to even more customer complaints. BTW, it’s ignorant comments like yours that let this company get away with everything & anything. If we don’t voice our concerns about these things that impact our quality of work, they will only continue to take more & more away from us.
Company has not ordered T25 staples or staple guns in almost 4 years. They also don’t issue tackle boxes anymore either.
Unbelievable nothing is safe here. What’s next rg6 cable?
