Cambridge 110270 Nm Cable Plastic Staples 1/2 Inch 50 Pack

Product Description

The CAMBRIDGE 110270 is a 1/2 inch plastic staple designed for securing NM (non-metallic sheathed) cable along framing members, joists, and studs during residential wiring installations. These staples are sold in bags of 50 and provide a fast, consistent method for routing and anchoring NM cable without cutting into the jacket. The plastic construction reduces the risk of insulation damage compared to metal fasteners, making them a practical choice for electricians working to NEC requirements for cable support and protection.

These staples are used in residential and light commercial electrical rough-in work where NM cable is the wiring method of choice. Typical applications include new construction framing, panel feed runs, circuit branch wiring, and retrofit cable additions in wood-frame structures. The 1/2 inch size is suited for standard 14/2, 12/2, and similar NM cable profiles commonly run in residential settings. Electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this type of fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians following NEC guidelines for cable support spacing and protection. De-energize all circuits in the work area before routing and fastening cable. Drive staples squarely across the cable without crushing the jacket — overtightening can damage conductors. Follow applicable local electrical codes for maximum support spacing along cable runs.
