What holds staples together?
I had to refill my stapler this afternoon (first time in more than a year!) – when I take out a row of staples from the box, the row all holds together – 60–75 staples per row.
What holds them together? Glue? Magnetism? Invisible tape?
It has to be something weak, because it allows the individual staples to separate when I press the plunger.
