With wire binding, your professional materials not only look sleek but are also functional and easy to navigate, leaving a lasting impression.

This binding method adds a polished, high-quality finish, making your documents look more refined and user-friendly.
Did you know? Wire binding is often considered more durable than coil or comb binding and adds a premium touch to any document—especially when paired with thicker covers.
Wire Binding Sizes, Colours & Pitch Options Explained
Choosing the right wire binding element doesn’t have to be confusing—especially when you understand what to look for. Let’s break down what makes our wire binding elements ideal for both professionals and hobbyists. From pitch types to wire sizes and colour finishes, every option we offer is designed to give your projects a more refined and practical finish. Here’s how to choose the right one for your needs:
• Binding Pitch Options – 2:1 vs 3:1: The "pitch" refers to how many loops there are per inch. A 2:1 pitch has 2 loops per inch and is typically used for larger books (up to 280 pages), offering stronger binding. A 3:1 pitch has 3 loops per inch, which provides a tighter, more elegant appearance—best suited for notebooks or planners up to 120 pages. Always match your wire pitch to your binding machine for compatibility.
• Available Colours – Gold, White, Black Elements: Choose the finish that suits your brand or aesthetic. Gold wires add a luxury flair, perfect for gifting and premium notebooks. White wires offer a clean, modern look ideal for minimal stationery, while black wires are classic and professional—perfect for business or academic use.
• Sizes & Compatibility: Our wire elements are available in multiple diameters to suit different page counts. Thicker wires are suitable for more pages or heavier stock like 120gsm paper. Thinner wires are perfect for everyday notebooks or planners. Always check the diameter and your project’s total thickness when selecting wire sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Can I use these wires with any binding machine?
Our wire binding elements are compatible with standard 2:1 or 3:1 pitch binding machines. It’s always a good idea to double-check your machine's pitch compatibility before purchasing to ensure the perfect fit. Not sure what that means? No worries—just reach out to us, and we'd be happy to help guide you! - How many pages can each wire size hold?
The number of pages each wire can handle depends on the diameter of the wire. For instance, a smaller wire (like 11mm) is ideal for binding 50-80 pages, while a larger wire (like 32mm) can hold over 200 pages comfortably. If you’re unsure of the right size for your project, check out our sizing guide or send us a message with your page count, and we’ll help you choose the perfect fit! - Are the wire binding elements reusable?
In short, no. Once the wire is closed during the binding process, it’s meant to stay secure. Trying to reopen and reuse the wire can damage both the wire and your project. But don’t worry—we’ve got plenty of options to get you the right wire for every project! - Do the binding elements colours fade over time?
Our wires are coated with a strong, durable finish designed to resist fading, scratching, and corrosion. With regular use and handling, they’ll maintain their vibrant colour and smooth finish for a long time, so your projects stay looking great. - Can I buy these in bulk for my stationery business?
