Mybinding.com presents How Ring Binders are Measured. These binders are all labeled different sizes from 5/8 of an inch to 5 inches. But what does measurement actually mean?

You can see that a 5/8 inch ring binder is actually slightly over an inch thick, and a two-inch binder can be almost 3 inches thick.
