After having used both Bostitch and Hitachi cap staplers I can say without a doubt that the Bostitch caps are the best. They work in Bostitch cap staplers without a problem, are easy to load, and are inexpensive. Not only do the Hitachi caps occasionally tear through, sometimes they do not release from the roll easily. The Bostitch caps never tear through and are individually stacked on the stick.

The biggest advantage I have found however, is that you can drop a stick in your nail pouch and pinch off individual caps to use with a standard staple gun. Many times you will find that your cap stapler will not fit where you want to place a staple, but a smaller staple gun will. This is especially handy when hanging insulation in tight spaces. By holding a cap in place when you staple, you can prevent the staple from tearing through the backing on the insulation. (Of course once the nose of the staple gun is on the cap, you want to move your finger before pulling the trigger.) The Bostitch caps will also work with brads. They are just made of tougher plastic than roll caps.

So the Bostitch caps are not only more versatile, but you will never have a staple tear through. While they are a little more expensive than roll caps, they are a better value overall. Especially if you need the retention of a staple cap when using a standard staple or brad gun.

If you own a Bostitch cap stapler then these caps are your only choice. If you don't own a cap stapler then you can use these caps individually with any staple gun. In any case they are the best staple caps you can buy.

Use these with the required staples and bostitch gun and you have one heck of a combination that nothing can compare to!

We were so excited to find these caps. We have a small family owned construction business and are always looking for these exact caps. The stores around here sell the cap nailers, but not the caps for them. We have to special order them with twice the price and a six week wait. Amazon beats their price even if you pay shipping for nextday service. We will definately be ordering all of caps through Amazon from now on!

Unbeatable deal from Amazon!
