Can I use these combs for very thick reports?

Troubleshooting

Combs are difficult to open or close

Ensure you are using the correct comb opener/closer mechanism on your binding machine. Check that the combs are aligned properly in the machine's mechanism. For difficult combs, try a slight wiggle while applying pressure.

Pages are not fitting into the comb rings

Verify that your document has been punched correctly with 21 holes and that the holes are properly aligned. Ensure you are not trying to bind more than 20 pages, as this will overstretch the 6mm comb.

Bound document pages fall out

Confirm that the binding comb was fully closed after inserting the pages. If the comb is damaged or excessively bent, it may not hold pages securely; try using a new comb.

Binding looks unprofessional or messy

Ensure the pages are neatly stacked before punching and inserting into the comb. Practice closing the comb evenly to maintain a consistent binding look. Use a new, undamaged comb for each document.
