THE BENEFITS OF LONG REACH STAPLERS
Have you ever tried to staple a document, booklet, or other promotional materials only to find that your standard stapler wasn’t up to the task?
Many office staplers are good for your average set of documents and heavy-duty staplers can take care of the tough jobs. For those moments when you need some extra reach, however, you need to have a long reach stapler at your disposal.
What Is a Long Reach Stapler and Why Do I Need One?
Sometimes referred to as a “booklet stapler,” this is the tool you need if you want to make your own literature. They cost a bit more than your standard office stapler because there is more substance to this tool. In return, you’ll be able to make booklets and staple documents with ease.
One of the best features that you’ll find is the measurement ruler that is incorporated onto the platform of the stapler itself. This allows you to quickly duplicate the results you need for making booklets, making you and your team more productive. It also doubles as a standard office stapler thanks to the traditional handle designs that are incorporated.
If you’re looking to create booklets of up to 30 pages thick using 80gsm paper consistently and want maximum versatility for your print marketing efforts, then this is the tool you’re going to want.
