Binding Spines Idest 16 mm plastic, green, pack of 100

Idest plastic binding spines, 16 mm diameter in green, pack of 100. These binding spines are designed for use with manual and electric comb binding machines and are suitable for assembling booklets, reports, presentations and training materials. A 16 mm spine secures approximately 110–120 sheets depending on paper weight and allows the finished document to open flat for easy reading and photocopying.

Advantages

Plastic comb spines provide a durable and flexible binding solution that resists deformation and retains its shape during handling and storage. The uniform teeth spacing ensures smooth threading through punched holes, while the green colour offers a consistent, professional appearance that helps organise documents by category or department. Packs of 100 make it convenient for offices, schools and print shops to maintain stock for repetitive binding tasks.

How to use

Prepare the document by aligning pages and punching holes using a compatible comb-binding punch according to the spine pitch. Select a 16 mm spine and open the comb on the binding machine. Thread the punched pages onto the open comb teeth, then close the comb securely with the machine so the spine teeth engage and hold the pages. Check that the document opens freely and that all pages are aligned before final storage or distribution.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use consistently sized paper and verify sheet count before selecting the 16 mm spine. If documents include heavier paper or covers, consider reducing the sheet count to ensure proper closing, or choose a larger diameter spine. Store spines flat in a dry area to avoid warping and keep spare packs accessible for frequent binding tasks.
