Description
For bulk wire binding in your large print or binding shop, a Wire-O Twin-Loop Binding Spool may be the perfect solution. We offer only the highest quality double-o wires from James Burn, available in a huge selection of sizes and colors to fit your exact needs. Whether you need small 3:1 pitch wires or large 2:1 pitch wires, we stock the wire spools that you need.
Books bound with wire spools lay flat when open, and offer a full 360° flip capability, so you can flip the pages over all the way until they touch the back. This makes them a popular choice for calendars, especially when paired with our easy-to-use metal calendar hangers.
A Wire-O spool is measured by a loop count and the loop count will vary depending on the wire diameter selected. For example, the smallest 1/4" wires feature 90,000 loops on one spool, whereas the largest 1-1/4" wires feature 2,900 loops. You can use the chart below to see the different loop counts per spool and help determine the best wire size for your particular needs, based either on an approximate sheet capacity or approximate book thickness.
Wire-O Binding Capacity Chart:
Simple steps to get the proper fit for twin loop wire binding.
- Take the book being bound and lay it flat on a table
- Don't compress the paper and measure the thickness of the binding edge
- Take the measurement and add 1/8" - that will be the size of the binding element
