Three Entry-level Gbc Plastic Comb Binding Machines

GBC is the market leader when it comes to plastic comb binding machines

, having been in the business for more than 50 years. They produce some really great products and they have several plastic comb binding machines that are ideal for people who are on a budget and need a simple, entry-level binding machine. This article will take a look at three of GBC's least expensive plastic comb binding machines. After reading this, maybe you'll decide that one would be good for your office.

GBC CombBind C55

If you need the most basic comb binding machine money can buy, the C55 is the machine to get. It's very affordable (under $50.00) and offers a portable method of binding documents, thanks to the machine's built-in handle. The C55 can bind documents that are up to 90 pages long and it can punch 5 sheets of paper per lift. Obviously, the punching and binding capacities aren't that high, but if you just need a machine for occasionally binding thin booklets, the C55 isn't a bad selection. Just be careful when you use it because the entire thing - even the punching teeth - are made of plastic, so it won't hold up to a lot of heavy duty use (or abuse).

GBC CombBind C75

The C75 is a good basic comb binding machine for homes and offices that need an inexpensive machine for infrequent binding. The machine can punch 10 sheets of paper per lift and your bound documents can be up to 125 pages long. This is a small machine that would be able to fit on any desk, and it would be great for binding both business documents and personal ones, such as photo albums and school reports. It's definitely a step up from the C55: it has metal punching teeth, so this machine should last longer than the C55. The C75 will set you back less than $100.

GBC CombBind C110

This is a relatively new machine from GBC and is one of their least expensive. The C110 is an easy-to-use plastic comb binding machine that can punch 15 sheets of paper at once and bind documents up to 300 pages long. It has a full-size handle that both southpaws and righties can easily use, and there's a comb size selector so you never have to worry about choosing the wrong size comb. The C110 can handle both standard plastic combs and GBC ZipBind spines, so your binding options are wide open. Of all the machines talked about in this article, the C110 is the best, both in terms of binding capacity and construction, but it's also the most expensive, retailing for $209.00. However, we have seen some C110 binding machines selling for less than $100. That is a great deal for this machine.

Something to note about all three of these binding machines is that none of them have disengageable dies nor do they have an adjustable depth of punch margin control. These features make it possible to bind documents of different lengths and they're typically found on the higher-end machines. However, if you're just going to be binding letter-sized documents, the lack of these features shouldn't be a problem.

GBC is truly a leader in the binding industry and you can start binding at a minimal cost with these three machines mentioned in this article. Buy one today and get binding!
