[look for metal (not plastic) internal cylinders and hardened driver blades.]

FULL DISCLOSURE: I WORK FOR UFFY TOOLS (that nice little banner ad up top).....I am biased and in my personal life will spend more money on tools than I might need to.

High-end tools like Fasco and BEA are great and should be rebuilt over time.  For maximum life of tools look for metal (not plastic) internal cylinders and hardened driver blades.

Low-end tools, it may be cheaper to replace than to repair.  A little research will usually lead to to a quick answer.

I am happy to announce that Uffy Tools has opened up to the public.

I have a Heartco clenching tool. It was old when I bought it 25 years a go and have never had a problem with it. Are you sure the tool in your diagram is a Hertco. The web site says Advanced Affiliates. Maybe there just the supplier?

Regardless, its a handy tool if you can get it at the right price.

The tool I show is from the tool maker "Uffy Tools." The parent company is Advanced Affiliates (hence the logo and link).  The tool does exactly what the old Hartco and new Bostich tool does.  Perhaps your tool and staple distributor may know more.

Hartco technically no longer exists as it was bought by Bostich a few years back.

I just made my first post asking if anyone had used a TH-T-DECO1 pneumatic decorative canister nailer by Uffy and I notice on their website they also make a Hartco tool TH-T-M66.  Does anyone have experience with this tool or pricing?  I cannot find too much information.
