Full details

The Rapesco AV-55 is an essential tool for professional environments and high-volume office tasks, designed for users who need to reliably bind large document stacks of up to 210 sheets of 80gsm paper. Featuring a robust metal inner chassis and an effortless lever arm mechanism, it offers significant durability and ease of use; however, its size makes it better suited for dedicated workspace areas rather than compact desks.

FAQs

What kind of staples does the AV-55 use?

It is compatible with 923 series staples in lengths ranging from 8mm to 23mm.

Can this stapler handle paper thicker than 80gsm?

While it is rated for 210 sheets of 80gsm paper, thicker paper stocks will reduce the maximum total sheet capacity.

How do I adjust the stapling depth?

Use the adjustable depth gauge located on the base to set your desired margin between 7mm and 60mm.

Is the chassis made of plastic?

The inner chassis is made of full metal, while the exterior shell is constructed from durable hardened ABS.

How do I load new staples?

Simply press the button at the front of the stapler to eject the loading tray, place the staples inside, and push the tray back into the main body.

What is the personalisation window for?

It is a small clear window that allows you to insert a name tag or label, which is useful for identifying the tool in a shared office environment.

Troubleshooting

Staples are jamming or not bending correctly

Ensure you are using the correct 923 series staple size for your document thickness and that the staples are not damaged.

Lever arm feels stuck

Check the front-loading tray to ensure it is fully closed and locked into position.

Staples not penetrating through all sheets

Verify that you are not exceeding the 210-sheet limit and that you are using 80gsm paper as specified.

Pros and Cons

  • Sturdy metal chassis construction
  • Effortless lever-action design
  • Flexible 7mm to 60mm stapling depth
  • Easy front-loading system

Cons

  • Large footprint takes up significant desk space

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the unit, press the front-loading button to eject the staple tray, insert the appropriate 923 series staples (8mm to 23mm sizes), and slide the tray back until it clicks. For maintenance, keep the device in a dry environment to protect the metal components. If you notice staples jamming, ensure you are using genuine Rapesco 923 series staples, as improper staple sizes can cause mechanical misalignment. The device is compatible with a wide range of staple leg lengths, allowing you to match the staple size to the exact thickness of your document pile for a clean finish.
