Review on Gardner Bender PTP 250JT Low Voltage Staple by Jason Burnside

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Unfortunately as good as it is now

Very good RG-6 coaxial shackle. GB _used_ to make blue data cable clamps that were a little firmer so they squeeze a regular 4 pair UTP data cable tight. But these days they just make a blue RG-6 mount and call it the data cable mount. However, they are about as good as you will get for these types of braces. Plastic is unlikely to break with regular use or even moderate handling. The nail must be driven in with a firm, expert hand to avoid bending and is too short to penetrate the drywall and reach the stud below. If you need to run a lot of wires in parallel, don't waste your money on braces. Look for J-hooks for hanging cords.

Pros
  • tools and equipment
Cons
  • The list is long.
