Post Driver Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Yeh great tool. Even if the jaws won't get behind the staple they will grip it you can pull them out. Handy leather pouch to go on your belt too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frontrowfencing Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 I have one, best staple puller I have had. Can't fault them, even on broken posts they have two little side points to help lever the staples out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goaty Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Had my first go with the staple mate on a couple of repair jobs. It works very well at staple extraction, it won't get every staple. However it's impressive how many it does get. Strong steel jaws carve their way into the staple if they miss the underneath. The cutting jaws are effective, hopefully they will stay that way for a long time. The wire gripper I didn't get to use on wire, it did grip and pull some paslode 90mm smooth nails out where rails were broken. Handy to have but due to it's lop sided mounting, it's likely to flip or twist. The leverage mechanism design is powerful, it reduces shock loading a lot in comparison to regular fencing pliers and my felco c7 wire cutters. Only gripes would be the expensive price and the handles are tough quality rounded profile. It feels like you are handling water pipe on round bar, not as ergonomic as they could be especially if used for long durations. The handles would benefit from being a brighter harder to lose colour, black is the most durable colour in plastics awkward to find in less ideal conditions. Maybe on a longer dismantle I would start with the staplemate to pinch out the staples then lever them out with a longer lever, to speed up rate and alleviate repetitive strain injuries. A good tool.

premnayloon Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 I've had it suggested to me to remove staples from posts, that aren't to be 're used,a cordless grinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goaty Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Did a real world evaluation today. I was removing a 6 plain wire fence. I set the stopwatch and did a section which I was 4 posts (24 staples) I tried to not deliberately rush and go a normal focused rate. 1st section using any tool except the stalemate, I used fencing pliers mainly but one staple needed hammer and punch to get under it first. Time 6 minutes 23 seconds Then I did it with just the stalemate and wore the tool belt. Time 3 minutes 22 seconds. I realised bending over with the tool belt was not comfortable and getting in the way. I finished the whole dismantle with just the staplemate, but took off the belt and carried a couple of food tins for the staples. I timed the 1st section Time 2 minutes 45 seconds No regrets with the staple mate purchase, only time it may not work is if a barb knot is wedged against the staple, then you can cut it anyway with the tools cutting jaws.

Mr T Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 I agree Goaty. They are the best we have used for removing staples. Although not cheap they are definitely worth the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
