Advantages

Galvanised strong wire construction provides corrosion resistance and durable performance when stapling paper and coloured paper. Sharp edges ensure accurate penetration and consistent clinching, while the 8 mm leg length supports fastening of medium-thickness stacks. The packaging with 1,000 staples offers a practical supply for frequent stapling tasks and the gauge 23/8 specification ensures compatibility with standard staplers designed for this size.

How to use

Load the staples into a stapler that supports 23/8 gauge staples following the stapler manufacturer's instructions. Align the paper stack so the top edge is under the stapler head where the staple will clinch. Press the stapler handle or use the stapler's power mechanism to drive the staple through the paper and clinch the legs under the anvil. For best results, check that the stapler is set for the appropriate throat depth and that the anvil setting matches the desired clinch (standard or temporary if available).

Usage recommendations

Use these Rapid 23/8 galvanized staples for regular office stapling of 10–40 sheets (80 gsm). Store the box in a dry environment to maintain the galvanised finish and prevent corrosion. If stapling thicker stacks or nonstandard materials, verify compatibility with the stapler and consider a staple with a longer leg length or a heavy-duty stapler as required.
