FAQs
Can I reopen the wire to add pages later?
No, WireBind spines are intended for permanent binding and must be destroyed to remove or add pages.
Will these fit a 2:1 pitch binding machine?
No, these are 3:1 pitch wires and are not compatible with 2:1 pitch machines.
What is the maximum page capacity for this 6mm wire?
These wires can hold up to 55 sheets of standard 80gsm paper.
Are these wires suitable for A4 documents?
These are sized for A5, though they can be used for shorter lengths if your machine supports the 3:1 pitch pattern.
How many wires are in one pack?
Each pack contains 250 individual white wire spines.
Troubleshooting
The wire spine is not closing roundly.
Adjust the wire-closing setting on your binding machine; it may be set to apply too much or too little pressure for a 6mm spine.
Pages are misaligned after binding.
Ensure your paper is properly aligned against the machine's edge guide before punching the holes.
The wire feels loose.
Check that you have selected the correct size wire for your page count; 6mm is specifically for documents up to 55 pages.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use these binding wires, ensure your binding machine is set to a 3:1 pitch, which typically uses 34 holes for A4 documents (adjust accordingly for A5). Place your punched paper and front/back covers into the open wire spine. Use your machine's wire closer to compress the spine until the edges meet, creating a rounded, secure seal. Store your unused wires in a cool, dry place to prevent dust accumulation or potential oxidation of the metal coating. Always test a single wire with a scrap set of papers if you are using a new binding machine to calibrate the closing pressure.
