Aluminum Staples for Furniture, Packaging and Sausage Clipping

KYA Fasteners supplies aluminum staples and aluminum packaging clips for furniture manufacturing, cabinetry, woodworking, food packaging and industrial sealing applications. The product range includes 18 gauge 94 Series aluminum staples, 713VO-AR aluminum sealing staples, U502s sausage clips, aluminum R clips and U-shaped aluminum sausage clips.

Aluminum fasteners offer a lightweight, non-ferrous alternative to conventional steel staples. They do not develop red iron rust and may be useful in applications where low magnetic response, specific corrosion characteristics or compatibility with packaging equipment is required.

KYA's aluminum product range serves two distinct fastening requirements: straight staples for selected woodworking and furniture assembly operations, and aluminum clips for closing bags, netting, casings and other packaging materials. These products require different fastening tools and must be selected according to their actual dimensions, material properties and intended use.

U-Shaped Aluminum Sausage Clips

KYA U-Shaped Aluminum Sausage Clips include the 711VO reference model and related U-shaped clip designs. They are used with compatible clipping machines for selected bags, netting, sausage casings and food packaging processes.

Different U-shaped clip models are used for different packaging materials and machine configurations. Confirm the required clip cross-section, leg dimensions, aluminum material, hardness and clipping equipment before purchasing.

Aluminum Woodworking Staples vs. Aluminum Packaging Clips

Although both product groups use aluminum materials, their installation methods and purchasing specifications are different.

Comparison Aluminum Woodworking Staples Aluminum Packaging Clips
Representative Products 18GA 94 Series 713VO-AR, U502s, R Clips, U-Shaped Clips
Primary Function Penetrate and fasten suitable solid materials Close packaging material by forming a clip around a neck or casing
Main Equipment Compatible industrial staplers Compatible manual, pneumatic or automatic clippers
Critical Dimensions Gauge, crown, wire section and leg length Clip profile, size, aluminum hardness and machine die requirements
Typical Applications Furniture, cabinetry, panels and woodworking Sausage casings, bags, netting and packaging closure

Woodworking staples should not be used as substitutes for packaging clips, and packaging clips are not suitable replacements for industrial woodworking staples. Always confirm the product family and compatible equipment.

Benefits and Limitations of Aluminum Fasteners

Lightweight, Non-Ferrous Material

Aluminum has a lower density than steel and is non-ferrous. This can be useful for selected fastening and packaging applications where reduced fastener weight or low magnetic response is desirable. Suitability for sensitive equipment must be evaluated according to the full application requirements.

Corrosion Behavior

Aluminum develops a naturally occurring oxide layer and does not produce red iron rust. However, aluminum and aluminum alloys can corrode in aggressive environments, particularly in the presence of certain chemicals, chloride exposure or incompatible metals.

Outdoor or damp-environment suitability should be confirmed using the actual aluminum grade, surrounding materials, expected exposure and required service life.

Machining and Material Processing

Aluminum is generally softer than many steel fastener materials and may be more suitable for certain downstream cutting operations. However, embedded metal fasteners can still damage blades, create debris or interfere with machining. Confirm the process and tool manufacturer's instructions before cutting or sanding fastened materials.

Application-Specific Mechanical Properties

Aluminum staples and clips have different mechanical properties from conventional steel products. Fastener strength, bending behavior, withdrawal resistance and closure reliability depend on alloy, hardness, geometry and the receiving or packaging material.

For structural or safety-critical applications, use only the fastener material and performance requirements specified for the connection.

Applications of Aluminum Staples and Clips

KYA aluminum staples and clips serve several industrial purchasing groups. Each application requires the appropriate product series and compatible fastening equipment.

  • Furniture and Cabinet Manufacturing: Fastening selected cabinet backs, furniture components, panels and casework with 94 Series aluminum staples.

  • Woodworking and Crate Assembly: Light wood fastening applications where the selected aluminum staple provides adequate penetration and retention.

  • Food Packaging: Closing compatible casings and packaging using 713VO-AR or other suitable aluminum clips.

  • Sausage and Meat Processing: Closing sausage and salami casings with the specified U-shaped or R clip system.

  • Fruit and Vegetable Packaging: Fastening selected net bags and packaging necks with suitable U-shaped clips.

  • Industrial Bag and Netting Closure: Sealing designated flexible packaging materials using compatible clipping machinery.

For food packaging applications, confirm material suitability, required hygiene conditions and applicable food packaging regulations. A product's use in food packaging does not by itself establish compliance with every food-contact requirement.

How to Select Aluminum Staples and Clips

For 94 Series Aluminum Staples

Select the correct staple crown width, wire width, wire thickness and leg length for the industrial stapler. Confirm the receiving material, required penetration, fastening strength and applicable aluminum material specification.

For Aluminum Sausage and Packaging Clips

Identify the clipping machine manufacturer and model, clip series, magazine or spool format, clip cross-section, aluminum hardness and closure requirements. Include casing material, bag neck dimensions and packaging line operating conditions.

Confirm Machine Compatibility

An aluminum fastener must match the exact machine rather than only the machine brand. Stapler magazines and packaging clipper dies have different dimensional requirements. Confirm the accepted product reference and complete dimensions before production use.

Wholesale Aluminum Staples and Packaging Clips

KYA Fasteners supplies aluminum staples and clips for furniture factories, woodworking manufacturers, meat processors, packaging equipment distributors, food packaging companies, industrial fastener importers and other professional buyers.

Packaging quantities vary by product family and size. Selected reference specifications include approximately 7,000 pieces per box for the 94 Series, 2,000 pieces per box for 713VO-AR and 4,000 pieces per box for U502s. R clip quantities depend on the clip model and spool configuration.
