M18 FUEL™ Utility Fencing Stapler

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Utility Fencing Stapler (model 2843-20) is a completely battery-powered fencing stapler that drives Milwaukee 9-gauge galvanized staples into utility pole and fence post materials — no gas cartridge required. This listing is for the bare tool only; the M18 battery and charger are sold separately. It runs on Milwaukee Nitrogen Air Spring technology with a POWERSTATE Brushless motor and REDLINK Intelligence.

What it does well

• Fires up to 2 staples per second and delivers a 6× increase in productivity versus manual staple installation.
• Sinks up to 600 staples per charge when paired with an M18 REDLITHIUM CP3.0 battery — completely battery operated, no gas cartridge.
• Tool-free depth adjustment and a tool-free jam-clearing latch keep you working; dry-fire lockout and a manual trigger lock switch add control.
• LED work light, integrated lanyard loop for transfer and storage, and a lineman’s-style handle.

Is this the right stapler for you?

This tool is built for utility, fencing, and lineman crews who install a high volume of staples and want to drop the manual hammer-and-staple method. It only accepts Milwaukee 9-gauge galvanized staples, so plan on those consumables. If you already run M18 batteries, it drops straight into your system; if you don’t, budget for a battery and charger since none are included with this bare tool.

What’s included

• M18 FUEL Utility Fencing Stapler (2843-20), bare tool
