What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives a 1/4-inch (6.4 mm) maximum for this model, while broader CP988-series copy describes a range up to 7.8 mm across the range. Treat the model-specific 1/4-inch figure as the stated limit, not the broader series claim. The listing also describes an integrated vacuum function for vertical operation, but does not clearly confirm whether that claim applies to this exact model. Confirm the intended rivet sizes and configuration before purchase.
