Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these staples be used in a standard desk stapler?

No. These are heavy-duty staples designed specifically for the Rapesco HT00290 plier and are too large for standard office staplers.

How many staples come in this pack?

This pack contains 5,000 individual staples.

Are these staples rust-resistant?

Yes, they are made from premium galvanised steel wire, which provides resistance to corrosion and rust.

What is the leg length of these staples?

These staples have a 12mm leg length.

What tool are these staples compatible with?

They are designed for use with the Rapesco Heavy Duty Plier (HT00290).

Troubleshooting

Staples jamming inside the tool

Remove the staple strip, clear any loose wire debris from the track, and ensure you are using genuine 73/12mm staples compatible with your plier.

Staples failing to clinch correctly

Check that the stack height does not exceed the capacity of the 12mm leg length, and verify that the anvil is positioned correctly to catch the staple legs.

Staples buckling or bending during application

Ensure the stapler is held perpendicular to the document stack and sufficient force is applied to the handle in one smooth, firm motion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality galvanised finish prevents premature corrosion
  • Chisel point design ensures clean penetration through thick stacks
  • Large 5,000-count box is ideal for high-volume office or industrial use
  • Reliable, jam-resistant performance when used with specified Rapesco tools

Cons

  • Not intended for use in standard office staplers
  • Compatibility limited primarily to the Rapesco HT00290 plier
  • Requires specific tool hardware to function as intended

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, load the staples directly into the magazine of the Rapesco HT00290 Heavy Duty Plier. Ensure the 'teeth' of the staples are facing downward toward the anvil. Avoid mixing these 73/12mm staples with other sizes within the same magazine, as this will lead to immediate jamming. To care for the staples, store them in a dry, cool environment to maintain the integrity of the galvanised coating. If the plier becomes difficult to cycle, inspect the staple channel for bent clips or loose fragments of wire and clear them before reloading.
