Its Arrow, they make staplers so you know quality is good

These are not some no name generic made in third world staples. These are Arrow brand. They fit my Arrow big metal staple gun like they were made for it. They go in deep and work well. Amazon took a few days longer than normal to get them to me (I guess everyone is buying essentials and TP) but that is fine.. Five Stars

Good staples with flat chisel tips for softer substrates

Due to a review given by an individual on the #506 (3/8") staples claiming the design had changed, I thought a bit of clarification of tip design was appropriate. The 1/4" #504, 5/16" #505, and 3/8" #506 staples have diagonal (45 deg.) cut tips for penetrating hard surfaces (Like roof felt when stapling to plywood). The 1/2" #508 staples have a different tip design that is flat and chiseled. This is for softer surfaces (substrates) that require a longer grip. In my roof sample, you would never use a 1/2" staple to hold down paper felt, and if you need a staple to hold the shingle edges down, you would use professional 1" crown staples with a pneumatic gun. In a pinch, if you are stapling down a shingle that has flapped up, us the 3/8" #506 and not the 1/2" #508, with a hammer stapler, as all you will get with the 1/2" flat chisel staples is frustrated, and make a mess.

Good Staples

I use it for upholstery of chairs and other similar items. I use it with my normal manual pressure stapler and the air pressure stapler. Works great with both. If you are having a problem with the staples not going all the way down, it's an issue with the stapler, not the staples! While upholstering a chair, the staples wouldn't go all the way through! For what seemed like forever, I thought I wasn't applying enough pressure to my stapler or the staples were the wrong size. No on both. It was the stapler, it wasn't meant for the job I was giving it. I upgraded to an air pressure stapler and the staples went through just fine.

they fit Power Shot stapler

these 508 staples fit a 5700 Power Shot (Black and Decket) staple gun -- was having a hard time finding the correct staples for this odd stapler. The crown seems to be thicker with the 508 staples.

Great staples

These staples are exactly what I thought they would be. They are strong and worked perfectly for stapling in wood. They stay in nice and hold the wood together.

The price was right

Fit my stapler perfectly and the price was right. For me this is a lifetime supply of staples so I am happy.

Super Dave Seal of Approval

They are Arrow staples most of us have bought hundreds of them and know it's a brand name you can trust.

Necessary on the range.

Mandatory for anyone spending time on the range and using a staple for targets. Just make sure you buy for the right size and stapler. Good thing these are cheaper than bullets. The photo shows how they are stored in the (rather weak) cardboard box and the stapler I use them in, an Arrow T50P.

Great price

Ggreat price, great item, fixed my problem well

whatever you use it on

stays put . I wonder how did I ever do without
