Comments about Jamestown Distributors Bronze Insulated Staples:
These were about the only copper or brass staples I could find for crafting purposes, but they are ideal. The insulator removes easily, and the legs are sharp and are easily tapped into wood.

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Bronze Insulated Staples:
Pro: The #5s are the perfect size for #6AWG bare copper, and #10 USE-2/RHW-2 insulated wire.
Cons: The legs could be a wee bit longer; maybe not. Just use more of them, especially in ground wire installs.
Installation: Do NOT expect to sink these with 1 or 2 strikes with a framing hammer. These aren't steel Romex staples.
They must be tapped in with a light hammer and on top of the 2 legs; not in the middle of the staple. That will do a perfect install.
