FAQs

What does '23/6' mean for these staples?

The '23' typically refers to the staple strip size and gauge, while the '6' indicates the length of the staple's leg in millimeters (6mm). The width is 13mm.

Can I use these staples in any stapler?

No, these are size 23/6 staples and are designed for staplers that specifically accept this size, often labeled as 'heavy duty' or compatible with the 23/6 or 23/24 series. Always check your stapler's specifications.

How many sheets can these staples fasten?

These Foska 23/6 staples are rated to fasten up to 40 sheets of standard paper.

Are other sizes of Foska staples available?

Yes, the product information states that other sizes are available in the First Stat range.

What material are the staples made of?

The product information describes them as 'Heavy Duty', implying a strong metal construction suitable for consistent stapling.

How should I store these staples?

Store the staples in a dry place to prevent rust and keep them away from extreme temperatures for optimal performance.

Troubleshooting

Staples are not penetrating the paper fully.

Ensure you are using the correct staple size (23/6) for your stapler and that the stapler is designed for the number of sheets being fastened. Check if the stapler's anvil is properly aligned.

Staples are jamming in the stapler.

Verify that the staple strip is loaded correctly and is not bent or damaged. Clean any debris from the stapler's loading channel and ensure the staple strip is straight.

Staples are bending instead of clinching.

This usually indicates the stapler is trying to fasten too many sheets for its capacity or the staple size. Reduce the number of sheets or ensure your stapler is rated for 40 sheets and the 23/6 staple size.

Stapler is not feeding staples.

Check if there are enough staples loaded. Ensure the staple strip is seated correctly in the channel. Clean the feeding mechanism for any obstructions.
