ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for forming and driving staples in a single stroke includes a former for forming staples from pre-cut lengths of staple wires, a forming block around which each staple wire is bent by the former, and a driver for driving each formed staple into a workpiece. A removable cartridge (1) for containing a supply of staple wires comprises a housing (53) for the supply of wires and a staple wire delivery portion (2) through which staple wires are delivered for use. The delivery portion (2) of the cartridge has formed on it the forming block (61) for the apparatus. This arrangement provides a fresh forming block for the apparatus each time the cartridge is replaced.
