Strong zinc coating protects stitching head without dirt buildup
Optimized surface and lubrication reduce frictional resistance
Consistent mechanical properties ensure trouble-free processing
Environmentally friendly coating for excellent corrosion resistance
Limited manufacturing tolerances for precise penetration
Clean, non-cross-wound wire eliminates downtime
Side stitching for secure packaging
Saddle stitching for booklets and magazines
Corner stitching for cartons and boxes
Booklet making for professional binding
Inline stitching in press applications
A clean wire path from spool to stitching head is critical for consistent performance. Avoid damage to the zinc coating by regularly inspecting and replacing worn wire guides, spring tubes, and felt pads. Flat spots or dirty components can cause flaking, leading to jams and increased maintenance costs.
This wire is used for stitching cardboard boxes, cartons, books, and magazines in side, saddle, and corner stitching applications.
Made from low or medium carbon steel with a zinc or tin coating for enhanced rust resistance.
Available in 2kg, 3.5kg, 10kg, 15kg reels, and 100kg spools, customizable per request.
Round wire is versatile for various stitching tasks, while flat wire is ideal for specific thickness ranges, offering better grip for thinner materials.
Ensure a clean wire path by regularly inspecting and replacing wire guides, springs, and felt pads to prevent coating damage and flaking.
Yes, the wire’s consistent properties and clean winding support high-speed stitching with minimal downtime.
