Full details
The Q-Connect Half Strip Metal Stapler (KF14208) is a reliable, entry-level desktop stapler designed for students, home offices, and small business environments. Its primary benefit is a rugged all-metal internal mechanism that ensures consistent performance for everyday document binding; however, users should note that it is limited to a 20-sheet capacity, making it unsuitable for heavy-duty or professional-grade booklet production.

This stapler uses standard 24/6 and 26/6 staples.
What is the maximum paper capacity?
It is designed to staple up to 20 sheets of standard 80gsm paper.
Can this stapler be used for tacking items to a board?

It is a half-strip stapler, making it more compact and easier to store in a desk drawer.
How do I clear a jam?
Open the stapler and remove any bent or misaligned staples from the magazine area with small pliers if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Stapler jamming frequently
Ensure you are using 24/6 or 26/6 staples and that the stack of paper does not exceed 20 sheets.
Staples not clinching fully
Check the underside anvil to ensure it is clean and free of debris or old staple fragments.
Top cap feels loose
Ensure the cap is fully engaged and the internal hinge is not obstructed by a bent staple strip.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable all-metal build quality
- Lightweight and comfortable ABS top cap
- Compatible with widely available 24/6 and 26/6 staples
- Compact half-strip design saves desk space
Cons
- 20-sheet capacity may be limiting for large document sets
- Not intended for heavy-duty industrial use
- Half-strip size requires more frequent reloading than full-strip models
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To load the stapler, gently pull the top cap upward and back to reveal the magazine. Insert a fresh strip of 24/6 or 26/6 staples and push the cap down until it clicks securely. For optimal maintenance, keep the stapler dry and free from dust. If the stapler begins to perform poorly, inspect the exit throat for bent staple fragments. Avoid using staples that are damaged or slightly deformed, as these can cause internal jams that are difficult to clear.
