For optimal performance of your Novus Professional Stapler, we recommend using Novus Premium Staples. These staples are manufactured using thicker gauge steel than standard staples and are precision formed to prevent binding in the machine. Using Novus Premium Staples will not only ensure trouble free operation, but they will also protect your warranty. To demonstrate their capabilities, a box of Novus Premium Staples is included with every stapler purchase. However, Novus staples are available in a number of styles and lengths to fit your particular stapler. This stapler also comes with a small box of staples, so you are ready to start stapling.

An Introduction to What Staple You Should Buy Overview
Transcript :
Welcome to MyBinding video. This is an introduction to what staples you should buy. When using a standard stapler, do you purchase premium staples or standard ones? Well in the end, it doesnš™t matter. It can get confusing when there are different kinds of staples, like the S.F 4 and the S.F. 3. They have the same type of premium staple, simply in different strip lengths. With the Swingline staples, youš™ll see a lot of different abbreviations and numbers on them. This acts more like a part number to help you match which staples you should use but sometimes one stapler can use multiples of the part numbers. As a rule of thumb, if youš™re looking for staples for a normal office stapler, look for the word standard or premium in the staple description. The staples should have a ¼š leg length and they usually have 210 staples at a full size strip and make sure not to use staples that say heavy duty or use other descriptives as they simply wonš™t work unless your stapler specifically asks for them. So now the question is are premium staples better than standard? In my first test, I tried to jam one of Swinglineš™s cheapest staplers. I started with standard. It jammed about halfway through. I repeated the process with premium staples, which had similar results but results could vary per stapler. Next, I tested stapling through the maximum amount of sheets the stapler could handle. With the standard staple, several did not staple all the way through. But with the premium, results looked more promising. I even tested specialty staples to see how they held up and they compared more to the premiums. Now if you arenš™t fairly sure what staples to use, first search your stapler to see if it will tell you or look at the box it comes in. There are various types of staples to look out for, all of which in the end staple your pages together. For more demos, reviews and how-toš™s, go to MyBinding.com.
I feel sorry for someone who has had to devote their life to staple design but this product stands out. They punch right through a thick stack of paper like nobody's business. The stapler (that I bought used on eBay and is sold here) is a high quality and intelligently designed. The bypass feature diverts the grip side of the staples away from each other diagonally so you can staple a thin document without changing to a shorter staple. Thank you staple engineers your thoughtful design has not been overlooked.
