Additional Information
Unlike other binding styles, Wire Binding is split into two formats known as pitch. The two pitches relate to the number of holes punched in a document over a distance of one inch. For example, a 3:1 pitch would mean you have three holes per inch; 34 holes down the long edge of an A4 sheet or 24 holes down the short edge (A5 long edge). A 2:1 punch pattern would be larger holes which cover the one-inch distance with just two punched holes. This would create 23 holes down the long edge of an A4 and 16 holes down the short edge (A5 long edge).
This difference is mainly for aesthetic reasons. However, punching small 3:1 holes in a thick document would make it harder to open and would create a significant weakness down the spine. Therefore, 3:1 pitch wires are limited to a maximum size of 14.3mm or size 9. Thus allowing a maximum binding thickness of roughly 120 sheets of 80gsm paper. For thicker documents exceeding 120 sheets, you will need to be able to punch your document on a 2:1 pitch.
If you are unsure, count the holes down the length of your document. For 34 holes, you require 3:1 pitch wires, and for 23 holes, you require 2:1 pitch wires.
