Choosing the right manual stapler depends on the specific needs and requirements of the user. Here are some factors to consider: Stapling capacity: The stapling capacity refers to the maximum number of sheets that can be stapled together. Choose a stapler with a capacity that meets your needs. Throat depth: The throat depth is the distance from the stapler's edge to the point where the staples are formed. A deeper throat depth allows for stapling farther into the paper. Staple size: Different staplers use different staple sizes. Make sure the stapler you choose is compatible with the staple size you need. Type of use: Consider whether the stapler will be used for light, moderate, or heavy-duty tasks. Choose a stapler with a construction that matches the intended use. Comfort: Consider the design and ergonomics of the stapler, especially if it will be used for extended periods. Choose a stapler that is comfortable to use.
