Type-140 refers to a specific size and shape classification for staples, indicating their width, leg length (10mm in this case), and crown width. It ensures compatibility with tools designed for this type.
The galvanised steel offers some corrosion resistance, making them suitable for general use. For prolonged or harsh outdoor exposure, additional protection or specific outdoor-rated fasteners might be necessary.
No, you must use these staples with a stapler gun specifically designed for Type-140 staples, such as the compatible Draper models listed (Stock No. 70411, 63638, and 63668).
Type-140 staples have a specific leg length (10mm) and a flat profile, suitable for fabric and lighter materials where a flush finish is desired. Other types may have different leg lengths, wire gauges, or crown widths for different applications.
Each pack contains 5,000 staples.
These staples are generally intended for wood, fabric, and upholstery. For thin metal sheets, you would typically require a different type of fastener or a heavier-duty stapler and staple combination.
Ensure the stapler is compatible with Type-140 staples and that the magazine is correctly loaded. Check the stapler's power source (if electric/pneumatic) or striking mechanism (if manual) for proper function. The material being stapled may be too dense for the stapler's power.
Verify that you are using the correct Type-140 staples and that they are not damaged. Ensure the staple is entering the material straight and not at an angle. Check for any obstructions in the stapler's drive channel.
Clean the stapler's drive channel and magazine. Ensure staples are loaded correctly and are not bent or deformed. Use only compatible staples.
Store staples in a dry place, away from moisture. If minor surface corrosion is present, it may not affect performance but could be unsightly on finished surfaces. For significant corrosion, consider replacing the staples.
Compatibility: These Type-140 staples are specifically designed to fit nail staplers including, but not limited to, Draper Stock No. 70411, 63638, and 63638. Always verify that your stapler is compatible with Type-140 staples before purchase.
Loading: To load the staples, open the magazine of your compatible stapler according to its manual. Insert a strip of 10mm Type-140 staples, ensuring they are correctly oriented and seated within the magazine channel. Close the magazine securely.
Care: Store staples in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the galvanised coating. Keep them in their original packaging or a suitable container to avoid damage to the staples themselves. Ensure your stapler tool is clean and well-maintained for optimal performance.
