Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
A hammer tacker is the fastest way to tack underlayment and house wrap before fastening. The HT38's steel body holds up to roof-deck abuse, and loading 168 staples at a time keeps you moving. For roofing felt, stick with the recommended 3/8 in. A-11 staples so the crown seats properly through underlayment into decking.
Keep hands clear of the staple exit and strike only against the work surface – staples can deflect off knots and hard spots.
Order the Stinger HT38 Hammer Tacker and speed up your underlayment and house wrap installs.
