what is the requirements for cfm and psi for this flooring stapler?

I used a 5 gallon pancake compressor which only can handle 3 cfm and I had it set around 90 psi with no problems. Pretty much any air compressor will work.

I used a Kobalt 10 gallon compressor with a tank pressure of 155 lbs and set the line pressure from 85 to 92 lbs. and it worked just great. Compressor was not overworked, and nails were driven through various dimensions of lumber.

That's not to small, I mostly use a small pancake compressor with my flooring nailer and framing nailer, it keeps up just fine, it puts out under 3cfm at 90psi, I usually set the compressor at 100 psi for the flooring and framing nailer, and 90psi for my finish nailers.

1050 CFM for this WCGA model. It should be good for 1500 sq. ft. attic according to manufacturer specs and printed in the box.

I have one of those Porter Cable compressors I got for a brad nailer, and the Critter works fine with it. You won't need anything like 90 PSI, either. If you use too much pressure, the spray will be very dry and dusty.

Sorry Billy, I have no idea about that model number. I used them in a Roberts 10-600 120-Volt 15-Amp Professional Electric Stapler for 20-Gauge with 3/16-Inch Crown Staples and Carrying Case which is available on Amazon. The staples seem fine, however, b/c the stapler is electric and not pneumatic, it's not very powerful. Hope that helps.

I believe this stapler would work very well for attaching 1/4" plywood to a substrate. I have stapled thicker ply, like 3/8" Baltic ply, and the staples penetrate very well. You would probably want to decrease the pressure (a knob on the stapler) to its lowest setting. I have shot 3/4" long to 1.5" long staples with it--no problem. When using the 3/4", I was stapling welded wire mesh to redwood frames, and the wire stopped the penetration of the staple as expected; that is, the staples did not penetrate too deeply.

we used 90-100 psi .We don't change the psi becouse we used other tools at same time Works perfect.

I would use cleats instead of staples if I were you. Make sure to max out your PSI for the nailer plus 10/20 PSI.

I use it with my commercial air tank and staple guns at up to 120 psi and it works fine. Good quality, and great price!

Sorry, not sure, I've never used an air stapler either - but I would certainly think so. A stapler could not possibly require much air volume. Just check the CFM requirement for the tool and compare that with the specifications for any compressor you are considering. PSI (pressure) is not important, CFM (flow rate) is the key.

CFM is not going to be a problem, unless you're a heck of a lot faster than I was. I used 90psi (the max for my compressor) nailing red oak flooring and had no problem as long as I paid attention and made sure the nailer was tight and square to the boards.

This gun was the one recommended for my flooring because my flooring required the staple to be shot through the bottom half of the groove, rather than the tongue. A regular stapler would not have worked for this. This one did a perfect job on 1,200 square feet of 3/8 engineered flooring.

Not sure about the SCFM but I have a Sears 1.5 hp 12 gal compressor. I run it at 60 psi and it has been fine for me. Very pleased with the nailer.

I'm not sure but the machine more than keeps my engraving tools that use 1 cu. at 90 psi., So far I am very happy with this compressor and keep it right by my work bench while it is runing

I think it would work as long as you don't require a large air volume to run the stapler. I use it to add air to the tires on my F-150 truck. It works well for that. It is easy to use, as well.

Minimum about 3psi and max 5 psi. We run ours about 4psi. If you run it on a 220 6psi is the best for a thicker steel than 5/16th inch. I really like mine. You have to play with the pressure a bit but you'll know right away if it isn't working.
