Not so soft and gentle in the box apart crumbling, like many other brackets.
On the other hand I have also very often the previously attached clips released again, what other, even tougher brackets (as they already are here), especially if they have been fitted with a flat stapler, is sometimes quite difficult.
As I said, but the brackets are reviewed here just right (for me).
They are not so soft that it already in the package (at normal treatment) fall apart or what would be even worse and more annoying, in the stapler continuously jammed / bend.
They then hold still loose to just 30 sheets very clean and tight (. Theor would also keep more, but it just too short - from 30 sheets up to the size needed here 24/8).
But you can also back with a "Entklammer device" (do not know exactly what that is), clean and easy removal, without making your fingers or leaves broken.
Now that I have a few times too soft and too hard (sometimes very expensive) brackets "wrong bought" have, thus never was really happy then, I have finally found the best for me braces for my office work.
On top of that holding the 5000 pack also only times quite a while.
However, should the long-term durability of the steel brackets, concerning. Brittleness, rust and robustness, prove even in the later stages.
In addition, even a minor complaint the somewhat carelessly designed and soft Cheap box / packaging, which at least 5,000 brackets content is likely to be very often shut up and.
The whole is then thought this very fiddly and as a permanent repository for many staples, simply impractical and bad.
Since there are always better and higher quality concepts and materials.
Overall, however, my vote for the reviewed here staples is still, if it then so would, about 4.3 to 4.5 star and form, together with my recently purchased flat stapler, an unbeatable team.
