Overview
The Metabo HPT N5010AB is a pneumatic flooring stapler that drives 2 inch, 15.5 gauge staples with a 1/2 inch crown, sized for tongue and groove hardwood installation. This listing bundles it with Metabo HPT's The Tank air compressor for a matched air source in one order.
15.5 gauge with a 1/2 inch crown is a mainstream flooring staple spec, wide enough to hold a board tight without oversizing the tongue on standard 3/4 inch hardwood. Pairing the stapler with The Tank compressor removes the guesswork of matching CFM and tank size separately, useful for installers who do not already own a compressor sized for flooring work. Metabo HPT is the rebranded continuation of Hitachi's power tool line, so the N5010AB carries that flooring tool lineage under the newer name.

Who it's for
Installers or DIYers setting up for hardwood flooring work who need both a stapler and an air compressor and would rather buy them matched than source separately. Less relevant to anyone who already owns a compressor sized for flooring work.
Pros and cons
- Bundled with a matched air compressor
- 15.5 gauge and 2 inch length suit standard hardwood
- 1/2 inch crown gives solid holding width
- Bundle price assumes you need the compressor too
Performance notes
The 2 inch, 1/2 inch crown staple is built to drive through the tongue of standard thickness hardwood at the angle flooring installation requires, and 15.5 gauge sits in the mainstream range for holding power without splitting narrower tongues. Because the stapler ships bundled with The Tank compressor, air supply is matched by the manufacturer rather than left to the buyer to size.
