FAQs

What size are these staples?

These are 23/8 size staples.

Are these staples suitable for any stapler?

These staples are designed for staplers that specifically accept the 23/8 size. Always check your stapler's specifications for compatibility.

What does 'galvanised steel' mean for durability?

Galvanised steel is steel coated with zinc, which provides a protective layer that resists rust and corrosion, making the staples more durable and long-lasting.

How does the 'chiselled point' help?

The chiselled point is sharper and angled, allowing the staple to penetrate paper more easily and cleanly. This reduces the likelihood of jams and prevents staples from bending during insertion.

Can I use these for general office use?

Yes, they are designed for general office document fastening, especially in environments that require reliability and reduced jamming.

What is the benefit of using them with Office Staples lever arch files?

They are designed to fit and fasten documents neatly within these specific files, aiding in organization and labeling.

How should I store these staples?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original packaging, to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Stapler jams frequently.

Ensure you are using the correct 23/8 staple size for your stapler. Check for any bent or deformed staples already in the stapler. Clean any debris from the stapler's internal mechanism. Verify the stapler is designed for heavy-duty stapling if you are stapling large stacks of paper.

Staples do not penetrate paper fully.

Check if the stapler mechanism is fully closing. Ensure the paper stack is not too thick for the stapler's capacity. The stapler's striking plate may need adjustment or the stapler itself may require servicing.

Staples bend or deform.

This can occur if the stapler is not compatible with the staple size or if the stapler is worn. Ensure you are using Office Staples 23/8 with a compatible stapler. If the issue persists with a known compatible stapler, the stapler may be faulty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These staples are designed to be loaded into a compatible stapler. Ensure the stapler is empty and unplugged (if applicable) before loading.

  1. Open the stapler mechanism.
  2. Insert a strip of 23/8 staples into the designated channel, ensuring they are seated correctly.
  3. Close the stapler mechanism firmly.

Compatibility:

These staples are specifically the 23/8 size. They are designed to work with staplers that accept this particular staple dimension. While they are optimized for Office Staples lever arch files, they can be used in any stapler that accommodates 23/8 staples. Always check your stapler's manual for compatible staple sizes.

Care:

Staples require minimal care. Store them in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Keep them away from excessive moisture.

  • Store in original packaging when not in use.
  • Avoid exposure to damp conditions.
