agrafadora


Explanation:
A stapple gun, is some kind of hammer that is used to staple (mainly) insulation material (it is actually used like a hammer). I don't know the exact traduction is Spanish (agrafadora ????), in French it is 'agrafeuse' (Stapel machine like the one you use in your office). I hope this helps
