Staples pack Rapid Tools 40109513 — 970 staples, 6 mm leg length

Rapid Tools staples pack model 40109513 contains 970 galvanized flatwire staples with a 6 mm leg length. These staples are designed for light stapling tasks in office, home and workshop environments and fit compatible Rapid staple guns and staplers. The staples have precision-cut legs and diverging points to improve penetration and holding strength when fastening thin materials.

Advantages

Galvanized flatwire construction gives corrosion resistance and a larger holding area against the material surface compared with round-wire staples. Precision-cut legs and diverging points ensure consistent penetration and improved grip in thin materials such as insulation, thin plastics, cardboard and carpets. The pack contains 970 staples in a narrow blister for compact storage.

Suitable for

• Attaching insulation and thin plastic sheets
• Light upholstery and carpet edging
• Crafts and hobby projects requiring short-leg staples
• General paper fastening and office use with compatible staplers

When it may not be suitable

These staples have a 6 mm leg length, which is intended for thin materials and light-duty fixing. They are not suitable for heavy structural fastening, thick timbers or dense materials that require longer legs or heavier-gauge staples. Also avoid use in outdoor environments where prolonged direct exposure to moisture may exceed the protection provided by galvanization.

Key specifications

• Staple type: flatwire, diverging points (DP)
• Material finish: galvanized steel
• Leg length: 6 mm
• Gauge: 140 (flatwire gauge)
• Quantity: 970 staples per pack

How to use

Load the staples into a compatible Rapid staple gun or stapler following the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Align the tool over the material and press or fire to drive the staple through the material surface. For best results with thin plastics, insulation, cardboard or carpets, position the staple so the larger flatwire crown lies flush against the surface. If secure fixing is required, test on a scrap piece first to confirm adequate penetration and holding.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with your Rapid stapler or staple gun model.
• Check that 6 mm leg length is appropriate for the material thickness.
• Choose galvanized finish if limited corrosion resistance is required.

Usage recommendations

Use these 6 mm galvanized flatwire staples for light fixing tasks such as thin insulation, light upholstery, carpet edges and craft work. Test on scrap material to ensure the leg length and holding are adequate before final fastening.
