Product Information

Full details

The Pukka Pad Metallic Shortie Pad is an ideal choice for students, professionals, and anyone needing a reliable, portable note-taking solution. These compact pads offer the major benefit of a lay-flat writing surface thanks to their wire-bound construction, ensuring comfort for both left and right-handed users alike. While they are perfect for daily tasks and quick memos, users should note that the 80 GSM paper is best suited for standard pens and pencils rather than heavy-duty markers or fountain pens that may bleed through.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pads suitable for fountain pens?

The 80 GSM paper is designed for standard ballpoint pens and pencils. Fountain pens may cause minor ghosting or bleeding.

What is the exact paper size?

The pads measure 23.5 x 17.8 centimeters, making them slightly shorter than a standard A5 notebook.

How many pages are in each pad?

Each individual pad contains enough pages to provide a total of 240 pages across the pack.

Does the wire binding get caught on fabric?

The wire binding is standard; however, we recommend placing the notepad inside a folder or bag sleeve to prevent it from snagging on delicate fabrics.

Can I use these for permanent record keeping?

While the paper is durable, please note that pages are designed for easy removal; if permanent archiving is required, consider storing the sheets in a ring binder after removal.

Troubleshooting

Pages tearing unevenly

Ensure you are pulling the page along the perforated line at a 45-degree angle rather than pulling straight up or down.

Wire coil becoming bent

Gently squeeze the coil back into its original rounded shape using needle-nose pliers if it has been caught on another object in your bag.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lay-flat wire-bound design is ergonomic for all users
  • Compact size is excellent for travel and small workspaces
  • Perforated edges make sheet removal effortless
  • Three-pack provides great value for students and offices

Cons

  • Paper weight of 80 GSM may not support heavy ink flow
  • Smaller surface area may limit extensive note-taking for some users
  • Limited to one line spacing option

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These notepads require no setup; they are ready for use immediately upon opening. To maintain the structural integrity of the wire binding, avoid overloading the pages with heavy adhesive embellishments or thick clippings, as this can strain the coil over time. For storage, keep the pads in a dry environment to prevent the paper from absorbing moisture, which can cause the sheets to ripple. When removing a page, always tear along the perforation line slowly to ensure a clean result.
