Battery-powered to avoid having to use gas, a compressor, and a hose. For cabinetry, furniture, paneling, and flooring underlayment, this is a good choice. Brushless motors run longer and last longer. A tool-free selectable trigger that can be used for sequential or contact actuation modes. For precise countersinking of staples, there is no need for tools. Low nail lockout prevents dry firing and marks on the work. LED (light emitting diode) lights can be used for both lighting and diagnosing tools. A tool-free stall release lever is built in to quickly reset the driver blade in the event of a stall. This lever can be used without any tools. A belt hook that can be used on the left or right side, depending on the user’s preference. The bottom load MAGAZINE makes it easy to load and remove fasteners that are stuck. All DEWALT 20V max batteries will work with this tool. Dcn681 narrow crown stapler, DCB203 battery, DCB112 charger, and kit bag are all in the package. This product is made in Mexico. This product meets the needs of the customer.
In my job, I have been looking for a cordless narrow crown stapler for years. Only DeWalt makes one now. I used to be a fan of Makita, but this tool made me switch to DeWalt.
I use this tool to put down 1/4″ and 3/8″ plywood underlayment and aluminum cove cap on the floor. It isn’t the best at underlayment because the depth drive isn’t always the same, so it’s not the best. A staple will be thrown out a lot more often with this tool than with my (ironically also DeWalt) pneumatic tool. If I’m installing three sheets of underlayment, that’s great. If I’m installing more than that, the compressor comes out, which is heavy, I might add.
Putting on the aluminum cove cap is where this tool comes in handy the most. As soon as this came out, it completely replaced my corded stapler. My corded stapler isn’t very good at all. Every penny I spent on it was worth it as a replacement for my corded stapler.
The battery seems to last a long time, but when there are only five or so staples left, the machine locks itself out.
In general, I’m very happy with it.
