FAQs

What is the maximum number of pages this comb can bind?

This 16mm GBC CombBind binding comb can bind up to 145 sheets of paper, which is equivalent to 290 pages (assuming 2 pages per sheet).

Are these combs compatible with any binding machine?

These combs are specifically designed for systems that use 21-ring CombBind binding. They are compatible with all standard GBC CombBind machines.

Can I re-use these binding combs?

Yes, the combs are designed to be flexible and robust, allowing for documents to be de-bound and re-bound multiple times. This is useful for updating or editing documents.

What size paper are these combs designed for?

These combs are accurately cut to A4 length and hole spacing, ensuring perfect alignment with A4 paper.

What is the material of these binding combs?

The combs are made from high-quality PVC resins, which contribute to their durability and resistance to damage.

How do I store these combs to maintain their quality?

Store the combs in a dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve their color and flexibility.

What does the 'lay-flat' design mean for my document?

The lay-flat design means your bound document will open fully and stay open, making it easy for users to read, take notes, or photocopy pages without struggling to keep the document flat.

Troubleshooting

Document pages won't fit onto the comb.

Ensure you are using the correct comb size for the number of sheets. This 16mm comb is for up to 145 sheets. If your document is thicker, you may need a larger comb. Also, verify that the holes in your document are properly aligned with the comb rings.

Comb doesn't close properly.

Check that your binding machine's comb opener and closer mechanisms are functioning correctly. Ensure the comb is fully loaded with pages before attempting to close it. If the comb appears warped or damaged, use a new one.

Bound document pages fall out.

Re-bind the document, ensuring the comb is fully closed by the machine. If the issue persists, the comb may be too small for the number of pages, or the pages may not have been punched correctly.

Combs appear scratched or discolored.

These combs are designed to resist chipping, scratching, peeling, and discoloration. If this occurs, it might be due to improper storage (e.g., excessive heat or humidity) or rough handling. Ensure proper storage conditions.
