A stapler with an extended throat depth (6+ inches) that reaches the center fold of stacked pages. Essential tool for creating properly bound booklets and zines that lie flat when opened.

What to look for

  1. 1Minimum 6-inch reach (12-inch better for larger booklets)
  2. 2Adjustable paper guide or ruler for consistent placement
  3. 3Staples up to 20-25 sheets through the fold
  4. 4Stable base that won't shift during use

Skip

  • Cheap models that jam constantly with standard staples
  • Reaches under 5 inches (too short for most booklet work)
  • Designs without depth stop (staples end up crooked)
