Binding Spines ARGO model ARGO0518 — 19 mm, red, set for document binding

Binding spines ARGO model ARGO0518 are 19 mm red plastic comb spines designed for manual or machine comb binding. They secure punched pages into a neat, reusable book-like format and accommodate document thicknesses up to 19 mm. These comb spines are suitable for assembling reports, manuals, presentations and booklets where a low-cost, easy-to-open binding is required.

Advantages

The flexible plastic comb design provides reliable page retention while allowing pages to turn freely and lie flat. Their 19 mm capacity supports a moderate number of sheets without adding bulk. Red colour offers clear visual identification for organised filing and project colour-coding. Compatible with standard comb-binding machines and manual comb closers, these spines are reusable and simple to install or remove.

How to use

Punch holes along the binding edge of the document using a compatible comb-binding punch. Open the plastic comb by mounting it on the comb-binding machine or using a manual comb opener. Thread the punched pages onto the open comb, ensuring the holes align with the comb teeth. Close the comb until it rests securely against the pages; verify that pages turn smoothly and the binding sits flat. To remove or edit pages, reopen the comb, adjust pages, and close again.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the 19 mm comb spine to the actual thickness of the assembled document; avoid overfilling to prevent deformation. Use with standard-size punched holes and recommended comb-binding equipment. Store spines flat and out of direct sunlight to maintain colour and flexibility.
