How Spiral/Coil Binding Works

The spring-like coils that are used for spiral binding are made of a thick, durable plastic.

  1. Small holes are punched along the edge of the inside pages and cover.
  2. The plastic coil is inserted and wound through all of the holes to hold the cover and the pages together.
  3. The plastic coil is crimped on both ends to keep it in place.

You can now freely rotate the cover and pages around the coil and open your book a full 360 degrees.

Benefits of Spiral Bound Books

Books open 360 degrees (cover to cover) which allows them to fold flat and lie flat for easier reference.

The turn-around time is generally quite fast.

It can be used for very short production runs…for example, 200 books.

Coils come in a variety of diameters to accommodate books of varying thicknesses.

It allows for books to be made in a wide range of sizes – small like a pocket guide or large like a road atlas.

Plastic coils resist distortion and are available in assorted colors to complement the book's cover.

This method is excellent for wall calendars and planners because it allows them to hang completely flat against the wall.

This binding style works well with index tabs.
