Robust fastening mechanisms for secure bundling and archiving
High-quality fastening mechanisms are used wherever documents need to be not only filed away, but securely and permanently bundled. These systems, consisting of File Prongs and a precisely fitting Slide Bar, offer enormous stability for perforated documents. At moog & langenscheidt, you will find versions for different fill heights, specially developed for intensive use in print finishing and office organisation.
Metal Paper Fasteners: Maximum fill height and stability
Our metal paper fasteners are designed for particularly demanding tasks. With an impressive capacity of approx. 35 mm, they offer ample space for thick stacks of documents, reports or project folders. The shiny tin-plated surface not only provides corrosion protection but also gives your documents a professional, high-quality appearance.
Colourful accents with Plastic Paper Fasteners
For systematic organisation or to match your corporate design, we offer Plastic Paper Fasteners. These have a capacity of approx. 30 mm and are characterised by their versatility:
- Colour systems: The Slide Bars are available in 6 different colours – ideal for visually separating different processes.
- Easy handling: The flexible File Prongs, combined with the sturdy plastic cover strip, enables quick re-binding.
- Lightweight: Ideal for posting bulky dossiers where every gram counts.
How it works: Secure hold thanks to Slide Bars
The principle behind our Plastic Fasteners is as simple as it is effective: The punched documents are threaded onto the File Prongs and then secured with the Slide Bars. This mechanism ensures an even distribution of load across the paper and prevents the holes from tearing, even if the folder is moved frequently. This keeps your documents firmly and neatly together at all times.
