Milwaukee Fencing Staples
Milwaukee fencing staples are gasless, collated U staples built for speed, strength and consistency. Designed to secure wire, mesh and fencing to timber posts, they reduce fatigue, improve drive accuracy and slash install time on boundary, livestock and site fencing jobs.
What Are Milwaukee Fencing Staples Used For?
These staples are ideal for fixing heavy-duty wire or mesh onto timber. Whether you're installing new boundaries or repairing fence lines, they drive flush, fast and securely using a compatible Milwaukee fencing stapler.
- Securing Tensioned Wire – Hold stock fence or barbed wire in place under constant strain.
- Fixing Mesh to Posts – Attach galvanized mesh to round or square fence posts.
- Stapling Plastic Netting – Quickly fix windbreak or lightweight netting during temporary setups.
- Repairing Boundary Fences – Replace pulled or rusted staples cleanly without hand fatigue.
Who Uses These Fencing Staples?
They're the go-to fixing for fencing contractors, landscapers and farm maintenance teams who need speed and durability in all weathers.
- Fencers – Install new boundaries or reinstate existing runs faster and more accurately.
- Landscapers – Fix netting, fencing or mesh as part of garden or estate upgrades.
- Farmers – Use for animal containment, crop protection or rural boundary management.
- Security Contractors – Rapidly secure fencing on commercial or construction sites.
What Jobs Are They Best At?
Milwaukee staples are made for high-volume, tight-grip fastening where access speed and staple consistency are more important than old-school hammer-ins.
- Fixing Barbed or Line Wire – Lock wires into place with secure barbed staples for tensioned stability.
- Cladding Animal Pens – Fasten wire panels or mesh screens to timber structures with minimal effort.
- Building Stockproof Fencing – Use long-run staples to build consistent, uniform lines across fields or yards.
- Securing Netting for Erosion Control – Attach biodegradable or plastic mesh to timber uprights in landscaping zones.
- Fence Repairs – Replace failed hand-driven staples with consistent depth and penetration on every fix.
How to Choose the Right Fencing Staples
To avoid pullout, splitting or underperformance, make sure your staples match both material and tool:
1. Staple Length
35–50mm legs — shorter for netting, longer for barbed or high-tension wire.
2. Barb Profile
Choose barbed staples for tough timber and high strain. Smooth is easier to drive but less secure under vibration.
3. Galvanised Finish
Always go galvanised for outdoor installs. Zinc-coated staples resist corrosion and increase fence longevity.
4. Crown Width
Wide crown helps spread pressure across mesh. Narrow crown is more discreet and ideal for fine wire.
5. Stapler Compatibility
Only use with Milwaukee fencing staplers that match collation type, crown size and leg length.

FAQs
Can I use these without a Milwaukee stapler?
No — they’re designed for Milwaukee gasless staplers. Other brands may not accept the collation size or crown width properly.
Are they strong enough for livestock fencing?
Yes — use longer barbed staples for stockproof setups. They hold under strain and resist vibration or post movement.
Will they work on wet or pressure-treated posts?
Yes — just ensure depth setting is correct to avoid bounceback. Barbed shanks help secure into dense or treated timber.
Do these replace manual hammer-in staples?
Yes — with better consistency, speed and lower fatigue. Perfect for long fencing runs where hammering would be slow or uneven.
Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Yes — they’re galvanised for weather resistance. Use stainless options if working near coastal or high-humidity areas.
