Review on πŸ”’ Arrow Fastener 506SS1 T50 Stainless Steel Staples, 3/8-Inch, 1,000-Pack - Genuine by Fred Meeks

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Good clip but poorly assembled. Don't waste your time dealing with them.

I will repeat what others have said about the low quality of these staples. The staples themselves are fine, but the glue holding them together is either of very poor quality or almost non-existent. The staples were virtually intact in the box, but fell apart very easily when handled or inserted into the stapler. The main problem is that they fall apart in the stapler while you do your work. Once they separate into separate pieces in the stapler, they cause a stapler jam because they cannot pass all the way through. Many times the staple would not come out when firing the stapler, but when I stopped a staple would fall out. Sometimes this happened, and two separate staples fell out one after the other. That told me they dissolved in the stapler. I spent more time on the staples than on the project. I can't imagine any company thinking that the glue that holds them together is so valuable that they can't afford to use more. I'm returning them to Revane, including any individual staples that fell out.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
