KYA Fasteners supplies carton closing staples and industrial packaging staples for corrugated box manufacturing, shipping carton sealing, warehouse packaging, logistics operations and professional distribution. The product range includes 32mm C-type carton staples, 35mm A-type carton staples, JK590 wide crown staples, SB103020 packaging staples and selected plier staple series.
Available configurations include glue-collated staple sticks and selected roll carton staples for compatible manual, pneumatic and automated carton closing systems. Staples vary in crown width, wire cross-section, leg length, collation and surface finish to meet different corrugated packaging requirements.
For packaging manufacturers, fastener importers and carton stapler distributors, accurate product selection starts with the staple series and closing tool model. A matching nominal crown width does not guarantee compatibility if the wire dimensions, leg length or collation format differ.
Carton closing staples are industrial fasteners designed to secure corrugated cardboard and other suitable packaging materials. They are commonly used to close the top or bottom flaps of shipping cartons, reinforce packaging assemblies and fasten selected corrugated components during manufacturing.
In a typical carton closing operation, the staple legs penetrate the overlapping carton flaps and are clinched or formed according to the carton closer's design. The correct crown width, leg length and wire section help achieve an appropriate closure without excessive damage to the corrugated board.
KYA's carton staple range includes wide crown 32mm and 35mm box-closing staples as well as narrower packaging and plier staple series. Different staple families are intended for different tools and packaging operations.
KYA offers several carton and packaging staple series. The following table compares representative product specifications, including actual metric crown widths, wire dimensions and available leg lengths.
| Product Series | Gauge | Crown Width | Reference Wire Section | Listed Leg Lengths |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 32 Series / C-Type | 17GA | 32.00mm | 1.90 × 0.83mm | 15, 18, 19, 22mm |
| 35 Series / A-Type | 16GA | 35.00mm | 2.30 × 0.83mm reference | 15, 18, 22mm |
| JK590 Series | 17GA | 24.20mm | 1.90 × 0.90mm | 16, 19, 22, 25, 32mm |
| SB103020 Series | 17GA | 12.85mm | 2.55 × 0.55mm | 10, 13, 16mm |
| 73 Series Plier Staples | 20GA | 11.30mm | 1.30 × 0.50mm | 6, 8, 10, 12mm |
Dimensions above are based on the referenced KYA product families. Wire thickness, material and packaging can vary by individual configuration. Confirm the actual product drawing, staple code and tool requirements before purchasing.
The 32mm and 35mm wide crown staple families are commonly used with carton closing equipment for corrugated shipping boxes. They differ in crown width, wire section and compatible stapler format.
32mm Carton Staples
17GA C-type staples for compatible 32mm crown carton closers.
35mm Carton Staples
16GA A-type staples for compatible 35mm crown carton closers.
KYA 32 Series Carton Closing Staples feature a 32mm crown, 1.90 × 0.83mm reference wire section and chisel points. The product range includes 32/15, 32/18, 32/19 and 32/22 models.
The 32 Series is designed for suitable C-type carton closing staplers. KYA lists galvanized and copper-plated options with glue-collated straight strips containing 50 staples. The selected model should match the carton closer and corrugated board thickness.
KYA 35 Series Carton Closing Staples have a 35mm crown and a reference wire section of 2.30 × 0.83mm. The listed models include 35/15, 35/18 and 35/22.
This 16 gauge series is intended for suitable A-type carton closers. It is supplied in glue-collated strips and is listed with galvanized or copper-plated finishes. The wire dimensions of a particular size should be checked before ordering, especially when replacing staples from another manufacturer.
Both 32mm and 35mm carton staples are used in professional corrugated packaging. Their regional popularity does not establish universal interchangeability or determine which product is suitable for a specific carton closer.
KYA's wider carton fastener range includes straight staple sticks and roll carton staples. Each format is intended for compatible equipment and offers different loading characteristics.
Staple sticks consist of individual staples collated into straight strips. They are used in compatible manual and pneumatic carton closers, plier staplers and other industrial stapling tools. Stick format is useful for packaging stations where the operator loads a defined number of staples into the magazine.
Roll carton staples are supplied in continuous collated coils for compatible roll-fed carton closing equipment. Their larger loading capacity can reduce the frequency of reloading during repetitive packaging operations. Actual operating efficiency depends on the equipment, operator and packaging line configuration.
| Feature | Stick Carton Staples | Roll Carton Staples |
|---|---|---|
| Collation | Straight collated strips | Continuous collated roll or coil |
| Feeding Equipment | Compatible stick-magazine carton closers | Compatible roll-fed carton closing tools |
| Reloading | Depends on the strip and magazine capacity | May allow longer operation between reloads |
| Typical Use | Manual and pneumatic carton closing stations | Repetitive carton closing and roll-fed packaging operations |
| Interchangeability | Use only in the specified stick-fed tool | Use only in the specified roll-fed tool |
KYA also lists SWC7437 Roll Carton Closing Staples in its broader packaging fastener range. These 35mm crown roll staples use a different feeding format from straight-strip carton staples, so tool compatibility must be verified separately.
KYA JK590 Series Staples have an actual crown width of approximately 24.2mm and a 1.90 × 0.90mm wire section. Listed leg lengths include 16mm, 19mm, 22mm, 25mm and 32mm.
JK590 staples are used in selected wide crown packaging applications, including corrugated-to-corrugated and corrugated-to-wood fastening. They require compatible tools accepting the JK590 staple profile and leg length.
KYA SB103020 Copper-Plated Carton Staples feature a 12.85mm crown, 2.55 × 0.55mm wire section and 10–16mm listed leg lengths. These are designed for suitable plier staplers and packaging operations.
KYA also lists SB103020 Galvanized Staples for compatible plier staple systems. The buyer should confirm the material, finish and exact staple code when selecting between these product versions.
KYA 20 Gauge 73 Series Plier Staples are a narrower staple family for suitable cardboard, fiberboard, bags and other light packaging operations. The series has an approximately 11.3mm crown and listed leg lengths of 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm.
The 73 Series is not a replacement for 32mm or 35mm wide crown carton closing staples. Its gauge, crown width and fastening equipment are different.

The quantities above correspond to listed KYA 32 Series and 35 Series products. JK590, SB103020, roll carton staples and other packaging fastener families use their own strip, roll, box and carton configurations. Confirm final packaging by product and length before ordering.
KYA carton staples include galvanized steel and selected copper-plated steel configurations. Material and finish availability depends on the product family, wire dimensions and packaging requirements.
Galvanized steel staples have a zinc-based surface coating intended to provide a degree of corrosion protection. They are used in suitable carton closing and industrial packaging applications. Coating specifications should be checked when storage conditions involve humidity or other potentially corrosive exposure.
Selected KYA 32, 35 and SB103020 products are available with copper-plated finishes. The coating provides a distinct surface appearance and may support specific corrosion-protection or packaging requirements. Confirm the actual base wire material and coating specification for the selected item.
A plated finish does not guarantee suitability for all wet or corrosive environments. Buyers should evaluate the expected storage conditions, packaging requirements and fastener material before purchase.
Carton closing equipment is available in manual, pneumatic, cordless and specialized roll-fed configurations. Correct staple selection depends on the exact machine, not only the manufacturer's brand name.
KYA 32 Series staples are designed for compatible 32mm crown carton closing systems. Reference tool families include selected 32 Series manual and pneumatic carton closers. Confirm the required wire cross-section and accepted leg length for the particular tool.
KYA 35 Series staples are intended for compatible 35mm crown carton closers. Selected equipment families use 15mm and 18mm staples, while other models accept longer 22mm staples. The exact accepted dimensions must be checked in the tool manual.
SB103020 and 73 Series products are used with corresponding plier staplers and other specified packaging tools. JK590 fasteners also have specialized tool requirements. Their crown width and wire section should be verified independently from standard 32mm and 35mm carton staples.

KYA 32 Series staples have a 32mm crown and are commonly associated with C-type carton closing systems. KYA 35 Series staples have a 35mm crown and are associated with A-type systems. Their gauges and wire dimensions differ, so they are not automatically interchangeable.
KYA 32 Series staples are listed in 15mm, 18mm, 19mm and 22mm lengths. The 35 Series includes 15mm, 18mm and 22mm. Other packaging staple families, such as JK590 and SB103020, have their own size ranges.
Stick carton staples are supplied in straight collated strips for compatible magazines. Roll carton staples are supplied in coil form for compatible roll-fed equipment. The two formats have different feeding requirements and cannot be substituted solely because the staple crown is similar.
Choose the leg length according to the total corrugated board thickness, number of layers, tool capacity and required clinching method. The staple should form the intended closure without excessively penetrating or damaging the carton contents.
Selected KYA staple series have dimensions corresponding to certain carton closer systems from these manufacturers. Compatibility depends on the exact tool model, staple series, wire dimensions, leg length and collation. Check the tool manual before using replacement staples.
No. KYA JK590 staples have an actual crown width of approximately 24.2mm, compared with the 32mm crown of the KYA C-type carton closing series. Their wire sections, tool requirements and available lengths are different.
