Black Magic from Myers Tire Supply
Black Magic plastic staples are widely used in many retread plants to eliminate cuts or abrasions from metal staple removal. The plastic staples melt during the retread process and are used for tread splices, wicking pads and tyre
tags.
The Black Magic 16 and 19 gauge composite polymer staples eliminate staples on the shop floor for a cleaner work area.
“Envelope life is extended without the catching and
abrasion caused by metal staples,” according to Dick Filikins, Retread Sales Specialist at Myers Tire Supply. “The staples are endorsed by major retread manufacturers,” he added.
The manufacturer
recommends the use of an Omer air stapler. The Omer staplers are light weight and rugged. The stapler and staples are size specific.
