Desktop stapler ESSELTE Rapid DUAX — capacity 170 sheets, ABS and metal construction

The ESSELTE Rapid DUAX desktop stapler is a heavy-duty stapling tool designed for high-volume office environments. Combining ABS synthetic housing with metal internal components, this stapler provides robust performance for frequent use. It supports a wide stapling range and is compatible with Rapid Duax staples, enabling efficient fastening of both thin and thick document stacks while keeping files neat with flat clinch results.

Advantages

The stapler's patented DUAX® technology allows a single staple to fasten from 2 up to 170 sheets, reducing the need to switch staple types and improving workflow efficiency. Flat Clinch technology folds staples flush to the paper, saving up to 30% of filing space. The mixed ABS and metal construction balances durability with reduced external weight, and the design is suitable for continuous use in busy offices, copy rooms, and print shops.

How to use

Place the stapler on a stable, flat surface. Align the document stack at the stapling point and press the stapler handle firmly until the staple is driven and clinched flat.

Refill with compatible Rapid Duax staples according to the manufacturer's refill instructions to maintain reliable operation.

Usage recommendations

Use Rapid Duax compatible staples and perform periodic checks of the metal mechanism for dust or paper debris. For best results when stapling near the maximum capacity, staple from a stable table and apply steady, even pressure. Store the stapler in a dry environment to protect both ABS and metal elements from corrosion or damage.
