Metal cover strips: Heavy-duty tear protection for print finishing
Wherever documents need not only to be held together but also secured permanently, metal cover strips are the first choice. Thanks to the high strength of the material, they enable excellent load distribution across the punched edges, even when large quantities of paper are filed. Compared to plastic variants, metal cover strips offer even greater resistance to deformation, making them the ideal choice for the assembly of durable archiving systems and sales documents.

Systematic protection of your documents
For a neat and tamper-proof finish, the metal cover strips can be ideally combined with our locking or cover strips. These are simply slid over the File Prongs and act as an additional safeguard against accidental opening. This creates a professional unit that retains its shape even with intensive use in POS marketing or administration. By purchasing our products, you are also supporting the preservation of jobs in Germany, a country with a long tradition of manufacturing.
