	What kind of documents do you assemble?

What kind of stapler do you use?

Desktop Staplers

Desktop staplers use standard office staples. Steel, chisel point staples will prevent staple jams and save you time and frustration.

Electric Staplers

Electric staplers are perfect for busy offices that generate a lot of paperwork. Try using flat clinch staples that close flat and allow for neat, even paper stacks. Maximize the sheet capacity of your stapler and simplify your reordering process by choosing the largest staples your stapler can accommodate. 

Heavy Duty Staplers

While most models can accommodate multiple staple sizes, it's a good idea to just pick up the largest staples your stapler can handle. That way, you simplify your reordering process and maximize the potential of your stapler. 

Specialty Staplers

Unsurprisingly, specialty staplers often require specialty staples. Make sure you buy the right kind of staples for your model.

The most common specialty staples are crown staples and  undulated staples. Both are designed to improve holding power.
