Southwire 195 Cable Staples 9/16 Inch Steel 5000 Pack

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 195 is a steel cable staple designed to secure NMC and armored cable runs in residential and light commercial electrical installations. With a 9/16 inch staple size and a 1/2 inch crown width, these staples hold cable firmly against wood framing, joists, and studs without damaging the cable jacket. The 1-1/4 inch leg length provides solid penetration into dimensional lumber. Rated for use with 14 AWG, 12 AWG, and 10 AWG cables carrying up to three conductors, these staples are a standard fastening solution for electricians running branch circuit wiring through framed structures. The 5000-piece pack suits full-project and multi-job use.

These cable staples are suited for fastening NMC (non-metallic sheathed cable) and armored cable in new construction and retrofit wiring applications. Common install scenarios include securing branch circuits along framing members in residential builds, multi-family units, and light commercial spaces. The quantity of 5000 pieces makes this pack appropriate for production framing crews and electrical contractors running high volumes of 14 AWG through 10 AWG cable in a single project phase.

Installation Notes

Licensed electricians install cable staples as part of NEC-compliant branch circuit rough-in work. Power down or de-energize any circuits in the work area before stapling near existing wiring. Drive staples with a hammer or compatible staple gun — avoid overdriving, which can crush cable insulation and create a code violation. Follow NEC spacing requirements for cable support intervals along framing members.
