Steel Stitch Corporation has thoroughly tested all major domestic and imported models of air staplers, and the model of choice in our manufacturing division is the BeA air stapler.

If your business requires a staple gun that performs day after day, year after year, with minimal down-time the BeA gun is for you. Behind this exceptional performance is German precision engineering and all steel body construction. Custom modified in our plant to move smoothly and without binding in the stapling channel of Steel Stitch's broad selection of Aluminum Extrusions. Rated at 90 PSI, Steel Stitch recommends efficient operation at 75 PSI pressure. This model beats the economy model hands down.
