FAQs

What does '26/6' mean for staples?

The '26' refers to the wire gauge (approximately 26 gauge), and the '6' refers to the leg length in millimeters (6mm). This indicates the specific dimensions required for compatibility with your stapler.

Can I use these staples in any stapler?

No, these staples are specifically designed for staplers that are rated for the 26/6 staple size. Using them in incompatible staplers can cause jamming or damage.

How many staples are in this pack?

This pack contains 5000 staples.

Are these staples suitable for heavy-duty stapling?

These 26/6 staples are generally intended for standard office use and light-duty applications. For heavier materials, you would need a different staple size and a heavy-duty stapler.

How should I store the staples?

Store the staples in a cool, dry place to prevent rust or corrosion, which could affect their performance.

What is the typical use for 26/6 staples?

26/6 staples are commonly used for binding standard office documents, reports, and other paper-based materials up to a certain thickness, depending on the stapler's capacity.

Troubleshooting

Staples jamming the stapler

Ensure you are using the correct 26/6 size staples. Check the stapler for any bent staples or debris and clear the mechanism. Make sure staples are loaded correctly and the stapler mechanism is fully closed.

Staples not penetrating paper fully

Verify the stapler has enough power for the number of sheets. For thicker stacks, consider a stapler designed for more sheets. Ensure the staple strip is seated correctly in the channel.

Staples bending during use

This often indicates an incompatible stapler or an attempt to staple too many sheets. Use only with appropriate 26/6 staplers and for recommended paper thickness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Ensure your stapler is designed to use 26/6 size staples. Check the stapler's manual or identify the size marking on the existing staples. These staples are typically 26mm wide and 6mm high (leg length).

Loading Staples: Open your stapler mechanism and insert a strip of 26/6 staples into the designated channel, ensuring they sit flush. Close the mechanism firmly.

Care: Staples are designed for single use. Keep the staple pack in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Ensure your stapler is clean and free from debris for optimal performance.
