Black Jack 100 sq. ft., 28 ft. x 43 in. x 2.5 Flooring Underlayment, can I use this for 3/4" thick hardwood floor?

Hoa, please add some detail on what flooring your putting down and what sub-strait it is going on top of; I suspect with 3/4" your putting down T&G; so I would say no. Depending on your sub-strait you'll wanna nail (mdf or other wood) or glue down (wood, concrete etc). If you are putting in a click lock or other type of self locking flooring then yes the Black Jack should work great.

Yes, Black Jack is a 3 in one underlayment, a pad, mildew and moisture barrier, I priced this stuff out and this underlayment is good stuff a lot thicker than everyone else , hope this helps.

I used it with 1/2 inch engineered oak hardwood and im sure it would work well with 3/4. It provides a bit of a cushion and a good vapor barrier.

It would probably work although I would be a little worried about the length of the staples. This shoots up to 1 1/2inch. I think you would be better served renting a real floor nailer. The floor nailer uses a flat ring shank nail that goes through the tongue and into the subfloor and you can get one that is air assisted or hammer only. If you ask at any rental place, they will know what you need. If you want to buy one, there are several out there but renting makes more sense unless you're going to be doing a lot of floors...I wouldn't use this on a 3/4 inch floor....

Yes it will. Very easy to use. You will have to change out the depth guide to the smaller guide, which is supplied in the kit. The one which is installed on the gun is for 3/4" flooring. This gun in very reliable and accurate. I had zero issue's with it installing 600sq ft of hardwood flooring.

This is for engineered hardwood floors That have a small profile ( the height or thickness ) With this gun I use only .25" inch to .5" inch thickness hardwoods which u can install up to .75" inch to start and end walls but u should use a stand up flooring maker with 2" staples or nails for anything over .5" thickness to get proper grip in to the substrate The safety would have to be disarmed to use a regular stapler Which is possible but not recommended for safety and well speed of the job This is a very good guns I only use with1.5" bostitch staples good grip and well perfect angle always There is cheaper manufacturers and models for the weekender Out there but I own 2 of these and well they come with hard plastic cases too for the professionals

My flooring is 3/4 oak and it work perfectly. The user wasn't as perfect, but nothing was the fault of the tool.

The thickness of these tiles is 3/8". They can be perfectly used on floors. Thank you.

I had 3/4 inch oak flooring too. I did use the mallet to drive the next board into place a little bit. But I found that a better plan was to use a short piece of the flooring as a surface to hit with my claw hammer. That eliminates any damage to the tongue of the next piece you are trying to install. I made almost every mistake one can make before getting to the best method. Striking the head of the driver hard is important because if you just tap it, it will not drive the staple or nail all of the way into the board. Good luck.

The corner pieces are 1 1/4" thick and so I'd venture to say that anything less than that would be a problem. I tried using it on 1/4" pieces to no avail. 3/4" pieces would likely be the thinnest you could go.

this rubber-mat is fairly thick and doesnt sound like it would match your criteria. I was surprised that it was very thick, however the length of it is quite small considering the dimensions of the floor is not that substantial.

We used it as an underlayment for a locking hardwood floor and it worked great. We did tape the seams together and put it over a plastic moisture barrier - probably overkill - but we are very pleased with the result. There is a softness that I don't think would have been there without it.

CFM is not going to be a problem, unless you're a heck of a lot faster than I was. I used 90psi (the max for my compressor) nailing red oak flooring and had no problem as long as I paid attention and made sure the nailer was tight and square to the boards.

If it is the same model #, it has 3 baseplates, for the diff. Flooring thickness. I used the 3/4"'

Yes, this is what I bought for my wood flooring... just been to lazy to install it yet... oops. Great products though! I have used them before.

It certainly would if your thickness is no greater than 3/8" . This staple is an excellent staple for "low profile" flooring installations

I am not certain, I believe 3/4 inch to one inch. You can easily use 2 or more together if added thickness is desired.

I have had excellent performance out of this cleat nailer in 1/2" and 3/4" flooring. I know of a few folks who have had success with 3/8" flooring. If you have a sample of the 9/16" flooring and the 18 ga. nailer, I would try an experiment to see if the bases provided with the nailer would work on this "in between" thickness. I'm sorry I don't have a definitive answer for the 9/16" flooring. Otherwise the Freeman 18 ga. cleat nailer has worked great for me! Good luck.

If your installing 3/4'' oak you need to use a heavier gauge. National Hardwood flooring Association recommends a 2'' 16 gauge cleat.
