The 8016 pneumatic upholstery stapler is designed for professional furniture upholstery, automotive interiors, picture frames, trim work, textile fastening and other fine wire applications. It drives 21 Gauge 80 Series staples from 6 mm to 16 mm with a nominal 1/2 inch / 12.8 mm crown.
With a listed tool weight of approximately 0.94 kg / 2.07 lbs, dimensions of 145 × 45 × 220 mm, a 150-staple magazine and an operating range of 60–90 PSI, the 8016 is suitable for repetitive bench-top and production fastening.
The tool includes a rubber grip, built-in silencer, rear exhaust and a narrow muzzle for controlled fastening in upholstery, furniture and interior assembly work.
The KYA 8016 is a pneumatic fine wire stapler designed around the widely used 80 Series fastener format. Its 1/2 inch crown provides a broader contact area than narrower fine wire staples, making it suitable for fabric, upholstery, vinyl, insulation, trim and other light fastening work.

The listed magazine capacity is approximately 150 staples.
The listed tool weight is approximately 0.94 kg / 2.07 lbs.
BeA 80 is a common corresponding fastener reference for the 80 Series format. Confirm the selected staple also falls within the KYA 8016's 6–16 mm length range.
Yes. SENCO AT is commonly listed as a corresponding staple format for the 80 Series family. Complete staple dimensions should still be confirmed before bulk ordering.
SENCO L should not be treated as the normal interchange reference for the 80 Series. For this tool, use confirmed 80 Series equivalents such as BeA 80, SENCO AT, Haubold 800, Kihlberg 680 or PREBENA A.
The broader 80 Series fastener family includes 4 mm staples, but the current KYA 8016 tool specification starts at 6 mm. Do not assume 4 mm compatibility unless it is separately confirmed for this tool.
Yes. Furniture upholstery is one of the primary applications for the 8016 and the 80 Series fine wire staple format.
It can be used for compatible automotive fabric, vinyl and interior trim where the selected 80 Series staple length is appropriate for the material and substrate.
The rear exhaust directs discharged air away from the work area, which is useful when fastening upholstery fabric and finished surfaces.
Provide the required tool quantity, destination country and 80 Series staple lengths you intend to use. For replacement applications, also provide the existing tool model and staple reference.
