FAQs
What is the maximum number of pages this stapler can fasten?
While it can technically accommodate up to 8-10 sheets, it performs best and creates the most secure bond with 2-5 sheets of standard 20-24 lb paper.
Does this stapler use any staples?
No, this is a stapleless stapler. It fastens paper by creating an interlocking fold without the need for any metal staples.
Is it safe for children to use?
Yes, it is very safe for children as it does not use sharp metal staples, making it ideal for craft projects and schoolwork.
How do I clean the stapler?
You can clean it by gently brushing away paper debris from the interlocking slot with a dry, soft brush. Avoid using liquids or harsh cleaners.
Can it fasten paper on the side instead of just the corner?
Yes, this stapler is designed to fasten papers on both the corners and the sides, offering versatility in how you bind your documents.
What kind of paper does it work best with?
It works best with standard office paper (20-24 lb bond). It may not perform well on very thick cardstock or very thin paper.
Will the fastened pages lie flat?
The pages will lie relatively flat, but the interlocking fold may cause them to not lay perfectly flat compared to a traditional staple, especially with thicker stacks.
Troubleshooting
Stapler not fastening paper
Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended number of sheets (typically 2-5 for best results, max 8-10). Check that the paper is positioned correctly within the slot. Make sure the interlocking mechanism is clear of debris.
Paper tears or jams
Do not force the paper. Remove any jammed paper gently. Try reducing the number of sheets being fastened. Ensure the paper is fed straight into the slot.
Fastening is loose or weak
This usually indicates too many sheets are being fastened. Try with fewer sheets. Ensure the paper is pressed firmly down before engaging the stapler.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Stapleless Stapler requires no setup. It is ready to use straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: This tool is designed to work with most standard paper types. It is most effective on paper weights ranging from 20 lb to 24 lb bond. It may struggle with cardstock or very thin tissue paper.
Care: To maintain optimal performance, keep the stapling mechanism clean. Periodically brush away any paper debris from the interlocking slot using a dry, soft brush. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners. Store in a dry place. If the interlocking mechanism feels stiff, a very small amount of graphite powder can be applied to the moving parts (not recommended for frequent use).
