Plastic spiral binding is the fastest growing segment of the mechanical binding industry. Users, the binding consumers, take notice of this product because of its durability, many choices of colors to choose from, and the advancements in the automation process. Agreeably, plastic spiral has become a viable mechanical binding alternative to the traditional comb or single and double loop wire.

Plastic spiral is manufactured with a PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) Filament compound. The applicable colorant is added during the extrusion process at which time the PVC and colorant pellets are melted and mixed. Different profiles are produced for specific coordinating coil diameters. The spooled filament is then put through the forming process to produce specified diameter, pitch, and the required length of coil.

It is important to know the specification of plastic spiral you will use which must match your materials to bind because plastic spiral binding that is very thin can cause problems during the insertion process. Otherwise, plastic spiral that is too thick can also cause difficulty when inserting. Thus, recommendations can and should be made based on the size and shape of the punch hole that a customer needs, as well as the type of coil inserting equipment being used.

When it comes to plastic spiral binding, there are more of options available for pitch, not only 3:1 and 2:1. The key is to match the pitch of the coil to your punch pattern. For example, if you punch with a 4:1 pattern, then you should be using 4:1 coil. If you have a 6 mm punch pattern, it is recommended that you use a 6 mm pitch coil.
