The Rapid K1 stapler has long been used by florists, restaurants, teachers, office workers and others who require consistent, worry free stapling. The ergonomic handle is comfortable to grip. Easily loads from the back. Anvil adjusts with a push of a button to switch from stapling to pinning. Excellent for all your fastening needs, from light to heavy duty. Multipurpose stapler for professional or home use. Rapid has spent over 70 years developing tools that are leaders in their field with Swedish quality and excellence.

Review: Great Smooth Running, Nearly Effortless, Quality Swedish made Stapler - Milton Waddams may keep his red sw!ngl!ne stapler. I will always prefer a quality Swedish made Rapid Classic. Built sturdy, smooth running, great fit in your hand! Works great with 2x2 coin flips. Easy to get staples in right spot consistently and nearly effortlessly every time! If you are tired of jamming with your old stapler, you'll love this one for its clean operation. You really cannot go wrong with this stapler!
Review: Great product!! - I used this stapler to bind the edges of a carpet remnant to make a few area rugs. It worked perfectly. It didn’t jam, held a decent amount of staples, was easy to load, and didn’t take too much effort to squeeze. My hand did not cramp which was awesome considering how many staples I used. Great product and a great value.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this work on stapling two pieces of cardboard, of average thickness**
A: Yes. Just tried it and it worked good.  At the front of the mouth it is 3/8 of an inch gap and at the back about 1/2 inch.  From staple to back of mouth is about 2 and 1/4  inch. Ray.

**Q: Does anyone know of any stainless steel staples that will work with this stapler?**
A: K. Wofford is wrong. The T50 is for staple guns. Size will not fit. 
Only 26 gauge stainless staple US seller I can find online is here 
https://www.stapleheadquarters.com/Standard_Staples 

You can try 12mm stainless staples  from Chinese sellers on Ebay.      They should fit 26/6 staplers.  I havn't tried.

**Q: Does this use p22 Staples?**
A: I use premium speed point staples , as far as I know they are the standard size .

**Q: Will 3/8" staples work?**
A: No.  This stapler uses 1/4" leg standard staples (such as Rapid #73782 or #90007), and 5/16" leg staples (such as Rapid #90003.)  For a plier stapler that uses 3/8" let staples, you should purchase Rapid No. HD31 Heavy Duty Plier Stapler (Amazon #B001QJC1PG) and Rapid #73/10  3/8" leg staples (Amazon #B0036TIMBQ).
