What is SnakeSkin™ Wire-O®? SnakeSkin™ Wire-O® is Wire-O® that is packaged in a flexible plastic "skin" that completely protects the wire, while gaining more loops per box. By removing the spool core we are able to package 3 to 5 times as many loops into a box! The result is fewer changeovers and downtime in your binding operation equaling more books bound per day. In addition the disposal costs associated with traditional spools is completely eliminated!
Features and Benefits:
Increases Productivity up to 15%
One box of SnakeSkin™ Wire-O® holds up to 3 times as many loops as a spool depending on size and pitch.
No spool changing which saves time while increasing productivity.
Quick, consistent and easy set ups.
Eliminates Tangling - SnakeSkin™ Wire-O® is encased in a plastic wrap which prevents the wire from tangling.
Eliminate wasted wire and down time caused by tangled wire therefore reducing waste and costs.
Reduces risk in transport and damage.
Reduces Waste Management - Don't waste time dismantling spools & incurring costs associated with disposal.
Reduces costs in storage and handling.
