Staples 23

Staples No. 23 for a large stapler for 240 sheets

   Staples for a large stapler are needed where document batches of 50–240 sheets are regularly stapled. In this case, an important factor is the length of the leg, which must bend exactly and neatly on the back side of the paper stack, not allowing it to come apart into separate components. To staple 10–30 sheets, the leg length on the back side of the stack should be 0.3 cm, and when stapling more than 30 sheets—0.4 cm. A good solution would be staples 23/13, 23/10

   When it is planned to staple a stack of important documents, it is advisable to test the stapler on a draft sheet of paper first. A staple with sufficient stiffness will pierce the fastening material cleanly and bend plastically, holding the stack in place. If you use cheap aluminum staples for fastening, a good result is not guaranteed. Therefore, it’s better to choose steel staples for 100 sheets that will not bend during operation.

Application tips

   What should you do when you need to connect more than two hundred sheets? Choose the appropriate 240-sheet staples with long legs. For example, staples like 23/23. Part of the leg length is used to wrap around the stack by thickness, and the rest will be bent during fastening.

   Which 23 staples will you need? Or maybe it’s better to buy 23/15 or 23/23? It all depends on the number of sheets to be fastened. A matching table is provided on each product, but in any case—having a small extra amount on the longer side will make you more flexible.
