A plier stapler is held in the hand and squeezed, so it staples in mid-air, up a wall, into the middle of a display board, through a hanging mobile, and anywhere a desk model physically cannot reach. For a teacher putting up a display, that is the whole job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe grip is the other half.\u003c\/strong\u003e A squeeze action puts your hand's strength behind the staple instead of your palm slamming down on a base, which is easier on the wrist over a long session of stapling and far more accurate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e24\/6 is the common size\u003c\/strong\u003e, so refills are cheap and every stationery cupboard already has them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal, not plastic.\u003c\/strong\u003e A stapler is the item most likely to be jammed, dropped and levered open by a frustrated Year 8, and a plastic one does not come back from that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e$13.30\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it is not a treasured item to be signed out - it can live in the art room where it is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe number Zart does not give\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSheet capacity.\u003c\/strong\u003e For a stapler that is the specification, and it is not published anywhere. 24\/6 staples typically handle around 20-30 sheets, but that depends on the mechanism and we are not going to state a figure Zart has not given us. \u003cstrong\u003eWe have asked, along with the throat depth\u003c\/strong\u003e - which is what decides how far in from the edge of a page you can staple - \u003cstrong\u003eand whether any staples are included in the box.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53793573765483,"sku":"EVTQZ001","price":13.3,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/2795\/8891\/files\/TQZ001.jpg?v=1788379578","url":"https:\/\/megaofficesupplies.com.au\/products\/zart-compact-plier-stapler-24-6-metal-body-ergonomic-grip","provider":"Mega Office Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
