One common question that we receive here at MyBinding.com concerns the
difference between the four different types of GBC Velobind Binding
Strips. Many people have seen the Velobind product but don’t realize
that there are actually several types of Velobind strips. Here is a
quick overview of the four main types of Velobind Strips…
1. Velobind Hot Knife (11 Pin): The first type of Velobind strip
is hot knife strips. These 11 pin hot knife strips are used by the
Velobind System One , Velobind System Two and Velobind System Three
Pro. The Velobind Machine takes the comb (the part with the pins
sticking out) and rivets it to the receiving strip using heat. This
provides a permanent and secure bind with an extremely professional
look. These strips are available in a number of different colors and
can also be purchase in 8.5” lengths and in 14” lengths for legal sized
binding.
2. 4 Pin Recloseable Velobind: The second most common type of
Velobind strip is the 4 pin Recloseable Velobind strip. These four pin
strips are designed for use with the GBC Velobind V110e punch and with
the Velobind V50 punch (now discontinued). With GBC 4 Pin Recloseable
Velobind Strips the excess part of the comb simply snaps into the back
of the receiving strip making it easy to edit your books and documents
later. Four pin Velobind strips offer the look and feel of GBC Velobind
without the need to purchase an expensive new hotknife Velobind machine.
3. 6 Pin Recloseable Velobind: Six Pin GBC Velobind binding strips
were designed for use with the now discontinued GBC Personal Velobind
System. These strips consist of a comb with six small pins that snap
into the receiving strip (just like the four pin Velobind strips).
4. Velobind One Eleven Strips: GBC One Eleven Velobind Strips are
designed for ues with the One Eleven 111 Velobinder. These manual
compression Velobind strips have unique serrated binding prongs to
ensure a permanent and secure bind. GBC One Eleven Binding strips are
available in black only and in two different sizes.
In addition to these four different types of Velobind Strips GBC also
makes SureBind strips which work in an identical fashion to the
Velobind 11 Pin Hot Knife strips but have ten pins designed to line up
with the hole pattern for comb binding.
