Why Choose These Cardboard Staples
A wide 1-3/8" crown spreads the hold across box flaps, so cartons stay shut through shipping and storage. Staples also hold in cold or damp rooms where tape can lose its grip, and copper coating helps the staples resist rust.
Staples are also quick. A carton stapler closes a box seam in a few seconds, there's no tape gun to reload, and a stapled box is hard to open without it showing. For busy packing benches, that saves time and cuts down on lost or tampered shipments.

Uses
- Closing shipping cartons and boxes

- Produce and other single-wall packing boxes
- Bottom and top seams on regular slotted cartons
- Storage boxes that need to stay shut for months
Choosing the Right Size of Staples for Boxes
Match the leg to the box wall. A 5/8" leg is right for single-wall corrugated. For double-wall boxes, step up to our 1-3/8" crown staple with a 3/4" leg, or the 7/8" leg version for heavier board. Each carton staple should pass through the flaps and clinch firmly on the inside.

They're box closing staples with a 1-3/8" crown. C crown staples are 1-1/4" wide and need a C-style stapler.

5/8" for single-wall boxes and 3/4" for double-wall boxes.
