The Rapid 44/8+ heavy wire staples are designed for strong, durable stapling in more demanding applications than standard office staples. With a 5/16" leg length and a 1/2" crown, these staples provide deeper penetration and better hold — ideal for stapling heavier materials such as thick paper stocks, light wood sheathing, cardboard, insulation, paneling backing, or other jobs requiring a robust fastener.
These staples are built with heavy-wire construction for increased tensile strength, ensuring reliable performance even under heavy use or repeated stapling cycles. Their design helps reduce bending or jamming, and the sharp staple tips enable clean penetration and secure clinching for neat, long-lasting fastening. Supplied in a 5,000-staple box, they’re well suited for both professional and DIY work, including packaging, construction underlayment, insulation installation, sheathing, and other moderate-duty staple-gun tasks.
