Why Choose These Extra Long Staples
When a stack is too thick for regular staples, these long staples get all the way through and clinch tight. They're the top size in the MAX lineup, so they handle the thickest jobs your HD-12N/24 can take.
Each box has 10 strips of 100, and the HD-12N/24 holds one full strip at a time. That means fewer reloads on a long run of thick packets. The wide 1/2" crown also spreads the hold, so pages don't tear out at the staple when a report gets passed around the office.
Compatible Tools
MAX lists the 1224FA-H for the MAX HD-12N/24. They do not fit the HD-12N/17, which tops out at the 5/8" size.
Uses for Thick Staples
- Thick reports, manuals and catalogs
- Bid packets and bound documents
- Print shop and mailroom work
- Any stack from 200 to 240 sheets
- Legal files and closing binders
Choosing the Right Size of MAX Staples
MAX makes five sizes for the HD-12N/24. Pick the shortest one that covers your stack so the clinch stays tight:
Review your usual stack size and add the box that fits. Heavy staples like these can't bend back flat on a thin stack.
Tips for Stapling Thick Stacks
- Load one full strip of 100 staples at a time.
- Square up the stack and set it against the paper guide so the staple lands straight.
- Press the handle down in one smooth, steady stroke.
- If staples don't close flat, check that the size matches the stack. A staple that's too long for a thin stack will buckle.
