Fastback is an easy to use thermal binding system that uses pre-glued Fastback binding strips with a textured fabric appearance. When used with the Fastback range of machines the glue is heated and activated to provide a strong and permanent spine binding. If you’ve seen the results of a Fastback bound document, then you’ll know how stunning a look they can give. We stock a range of strips for use in many of the Fastback machines and can also get other colours and non standard items at only a couple of days notice.
All supplied in packs of 100 A4 (297mm) strips. For large quantities please contact us for a quotation as we can offer some excellent carton rates on these products. If you’re interested in Fastback binding machines there are many different options and we can help you select the right one for your organisation.
Strips held in stock are shown here but we can supply all sizes and colours to order with short lead times. There are different widths of Fastback strips and these will be suitable for use in different machines. When working out what size strip you might need you can use the table below to gauge this. 1mm of spine is roughly equal to 10 sheets of standard paper stock (70gsm) or as per the below table:
| Compatible model | Size | Max No. of 80gsm Sheets |
| Fastback 15/20 | Narrow | 125 sheets |
| Fastback 15/20 | Medium | 250 sheets |
| Fastback 15/20 | Wide | 350 sheets |
| Fastback 9 | Narrow | 125 sheets |
| Fastback 9 | Medium | 250 sheets |
