comb binding

Plastic spine binding

Comb binding is a method of binding pages using a plastic spine with curved teeth that fit through rectangular holes punched along the edge of the paper.

The teeth curl through the holes and grip the pages, allowing documents to lie flat when open.

Common for reports, manuals, and presentations: The office had a comb binding machine for proposals.
