A packing essential, staples provide a strong and secure method of sealing cardboard boxes.

The size of staple required will depend on the thickness of your cardboard box and the tool being used to staple the cardboard box.

Heavy duty carton closing staples are galvanised staples which can be used with top, bottom and pneumatic staplers.

Plier staples are designed for use with pneumatic pliers and are typically small in width than carton sealing staples.

Wide crown staples are also available, given a wider stapling width to seal the cardboard box.

All staple sizes are shown as Crown (Width) x Shank (Length) in millimetres (mm).
