Some of the sturdiest cardboard boxes I’ve seen have been sealed with staples. Staples provide strong grip and don’t have the same weakness as tape does when in transport. The stapling has usually been left to pneumatic staplers or manual staplers but with cordless power tools taking over Bostitch decided to ditch the cord usually used with pneumatic carton staplers and came out with a 12V Max carton closer.
If the batteries look familiar, that’s because they are and appear to be rebranded DeWALT 12V Max batteries. There are 2 models available and both use 1-3/8″ staples with the difference between both being the staple leg length. Model DSW-3519 can take 1-3/8″ staples in 5/8″ to 3/4″” leg length and model DSW-3522 can take 1-3/8″ staples in 3/4″ to 7/8″ leg length.
