Rapid ESN114 (5000131)

Simplicity is not a vice, but an advantage

The Rapid ESN114 is a relatively simple stapler that doesn't have any extra bells and whistles. But due to its simplicity, it is very reliable and almost trouble-free. All parts subject to wear (like magazine or pusher) are made of quality steel, so they last a long time. The tool is light (0.94 kg), making it comfortable to work with. The cable has a length of 2.5 m. The design is simple, but the stapler is ergonomic and fits well in the hand. There are soft anti-slip pads on the top and bottom of the handle. This model has a short nose and a flat front surface, which makes it easier to work in corners and allows you to hit fasteners almost close to the walls. The type of action is non-contact, but at the same time there is a fuse on the trigger, which excludes an accidental shot with a staple or carnation.

Compatibility with different brands of fasteners

The stapler has a standard rate of fire (by the standards of network models) — 20 beats / min. The capacious shop is calculated on 90 brackets. There is an indicator window on the case through which you can see whether the magazine is full or not. This tool works with type 11 brackets (in the Rapid fasteners catalog they are called type 114, which is reflected in the model name) and type J nails (Rapid calls such nails type 8). It is important to note that it is not necessary to buy “branded” fasteners, because Rapid ESN114 works great with “consumables” produced by other manufacturers. If you need a type 53 staple pistol, then you should buy the "twin brother" of this model — the Rapid ESN530.

A tool familiar to professionals

The Rapid brand is not well known to ordinary users, but it is in good standing with professionals. This company specializes in building staplers, glue guns and technical hair dryers. But the Rapid tool cannot be called low-cost. Almost all models (including this stapler) are priced above average. Therefore, Rapid products are more often bought for professional use than for work in the home workshop.
