Makita DST221 Cordless Stapler

Product description
The Makita DST221 is an 18-volt cordless stapler that allows you to fasten quickly and neatly without a compressor or hoses: upholstery, fabrics, vapor barrier plastics, wind barrier paper, felt, and thin moldings. Staples sink to just the right depth with the push of a button thanks to the adjustable impact force, and you don't need to drag pneumatic equipment to the job site – the battery and charger are included. The magazine holds a full strip of staples, and refilling takes seconds. An excellent helper for re-upholstering sofas, plasticizing greenhouses, vapor barrier work during renovations, and small cottage repairs. Staples are charged according to usage, so you can staple as much as your project requires without worry.
