Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does '26/6' mean for staples?

The '26' refers to the gauge of the wire (26 gauge), and the '6' refers to the length of the legs in millimeters (6mm). This is a standard size for many common staplers.

Can I use these staples in any stapler?

No, these staples are specifically for staplers that accept the 26/6 size. Always check your stapler's specifications for compatibility.

Are these staples suitable for binding thick documents?

These staples are best suited for standard document thicknesses (typically up to 20 pages, depending on the stapler). For very thick documents, a heavy-duty stapler and corresponding staples would be necessary.

How should I store the staples?

Store the staples in their original packaging in a cool, dry place to prevent rust and keep them organized.

What material are the staples made from?

These staples are made from durable steel.

How many staples are in this pack?

This pack contains 1000 staples.

Troubleshooting

Stapler jams frequently.

Ensure you are using the correct 26/6 staple size. Check that the staples are loaded correctly and that the stapler mechanism is clean and free of debris. Do not overload the stapler.

Staples do not penetrate paper fully.

Verify that the stapler has enough force for the number of pages. If the staples are bending, confirm they are loaded correctly and are not the wrong size for the stapler. The paper may be too thick for the stapler's capacity.

Staples are not clinching properly.

Check the anvil (the part that bends the staple legs) on your stapler. Ensure it is set to the correct clinch for your paper thickness. Some anvils are adjustable.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Open your stapler mechanism.
  2. Load the 26/6 staples into the staple channel, ensuring they are facing the correct direction as indicated by your stapler's design.
  3. Close the stapler mechanism firmly.

Compatibility:

These staples are designed for use with staplers that specifically accept the 26/6 staple size. Always check your stapler's manual or markings to confirm compatibility before loading. They are generally suitable for standard office and home staplers. They may not be compatible with heavy-duty staplers or very small, portable staplers that require different staple dimensions.

Care:

Store staples in a dry place to prevent rust or corrosion. Keep the staple packaging intact until ready for use to maintain organization and prevent spillage.
