Product Information

Full details

The 5 Star Office Legal Tape Silk Braids are designed for legal professionals, paralegals, and administrative staff who require a secure and traditional method for binding legal documents and Wills. These 6mm wide, 50m long silk tapes offer a sophisticated and permanent binding solution, though users should note that they require manual threading or sewing techniques which may take more time than standard stapling or comb binding.

FAQs

Is this tape adhesive?

No, these are traditional silk braids designed for sewing and manual binding, not for sticking directly to paper.

Can I use these for other craft projects?

While designed for legal documentation, the durable silk construction makes them suitable for gift wrapping or high-end craft projects.

How wide is the braid?

The tape measures exactly 6mm in width.

Will the blue color bleed onto the document?

The dye is color-fast, but it is always recommended to handle the tape with clean, dry hands to prevent any potential transfer.

How long is the roll?

Each roll contains 50 meters of silk braid.

Troubleshooting

Braid fraying at the cut end

Apply a tiny amount of clear fabric glue or gently singe the very end of the braid with a heat source to seal the fibers.

Difficulty threading through holes

Wrap a small piece of thin tape around the tip of the braid to create a rigid 'needle' effect to guide it through the hole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a traditional and prestigious look for legal documents
  • Generous 50m length per roll ensures excellent value
  • Durable material prevents fraying during handling
  • Ideal for archival-quality document storage

Cons

  • Requires manual sewing or threading skill
  • Slower to implement than mechanical binding methods
  • Cannot be easily removed or replaced without cutting the braid

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use these braids, ensure you have a professional-grade paper drill or hole punch capable of creating clean, smooth edges. When threading, pull the braid firmly to achieve a taut bind, but avoid extreme over-tightening which can tear thin paper. Store the rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the blue dye and prevent the silk fibers from weakening over time. Keep the ends of the roll taped or secured to prevent unspooling.
