Hard to say if the staples will set off the detectors. Likely that they could but my silver chain or metal plate in my face never does (hockey puck). I took a road trip as I didn't want to deal with airports.

Interesting question. I never heard of this and I can tell you experientially that it didn't happen to me Big Grin.
