Product Information

Full details

Fellowes Apex binding combs, in a 10mm black plastic design, offer a professional and economical way to bind documents up to A4 size. Ideal for small offices or home users who need to create presentable reports, proposals, or manuals, these combs provide a flexible and durable binding solution. A potential caveat is that they require a separate binding machine for use, and are best suited for documents that don't require frequent page additions or removals.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum number of pages these 10mm combs can bind?

The 10mm Fellowes Apex binding combs can typically bind up to approximately 80 pages, depending on the paper weight and quality.

Are these combs reusable?

Plastic binding combs are generally not designed for reuse. Once a document is bound and the comb rings are closed, it requires cutting the comb to open it, which can damage the comb for subsequent use.

What size documents can I bind with these combs?

These combs are specifically designed for A4 sized documents.

What color are these binding combs?

This specific product is black.

How many binding combs are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 100 binding combs.

Do I need a binding machine to use these combs?

Yes, you will need a compatible plastic comb binding machine to punch the document pages and to open and close the comb rings.

Can I bind documents thicker than 80 pages with these combs?

While the 10mm comb is rated for up to 80 pages, binding significantly more pages may result in a less secure bind or difficulty in closing the comb. It's recommended to use a larger comb size for thicker documents.

Troubleshooting

Document pages won't fit onto the comb.

Ensure you are using the correct comb size for the number of pages. A 10mm comb typically holds up to 80 pages. You may need a larger comb if your document is thicker.

Binding machine is not punching holes correctly.

Check if the binding machine is properly loaded with paper and that the punching mechanism is clear of debris. Consult your binding machine's manual for specific troubleshooting.

Bound document pages are falling out.

Ensure the comb rings were fully closed after inserting the pages. If pages are still loose, the comb might be too small for the document thickness, or the holes may have been damaged during punching.

Combs feel brittle or break easily.

Ensure combs are stored properly in a cool, dry environment. Extreme temperatures or prolonged exposure to sunlight can make the plastic brittle. Use a comb size appropriate for the page count to avoid over-stretching.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use Fellowes Apex binding combs, you will need a compatible plastic comb binding machine. First, punch the desired number of pages using your binding machine. Ensure the punched holes align correctly with the teeth of the binding comb. Open the binding machine's comb rings, slide the punched pages onto the rings, and then close the rings to secure the document.

Compatibility: These combs are designed for use with standard plastic comb binding machines that accommodate 21-ring combs. They are suitable for A4 sized documents.

Care: Store binding combs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the plastic. Keep them in their original packaging to maintain their shape and cleanliness. If combs become dusty, wipe them gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
