Frequently Asked Questions

Fastback CP Strips work with the Fastback 11, Fastback 15xs, and Fastback 20. They are not intended for the Fastback 9. Confirm the machine model before ordering because strip appearance or size alone does not establish compatibility. CP Strips are intended for certain materials that can be difficult to bind using standard supplies, making them useful for documents containing coated, glossy, or other challenging paper stocks when supported by the equipment instructions. The broader range of Fastback binding supplies includes standard and specialty strip options for different Fastback workflows.

CP Strips are designed for certain harder-to-bind papers and materials where a standard strip may not provide the preferred result. Examples can include heavily coated stocks, glossy sheets, or materials with surfaces that make adhesive bonding more difficult. The entire document should be assessed because a mixed book block may contain both ordinary and challenging sheets. Test the actual paper and cover combination before producing a large run. CP Strips should not be selected merely as a stronger substitute for every document. They should be used when the paper characteristics and compatible machine support their intended purpose.

First confirm that the strip length matches the binding edge. Then measure the complete document thickness, including covers, coated inserts, and divider sheets, to determine the required width. Specialty papers can add more thickness than ordinary copy paper, so page count is not a reliable measurement by itself. The available Fastback strips include several families, but only the compatible CP size should be used when the document requires this strip type. Keep the book block square and compressed naturally when measuring. Do not force it thinner, since this can lead to an undersized strip.

They may physically bind some documents containing ordinary paper when used with a compatible machine, but they are intended primarily for more challenging materials. For routine copy paper and standard reports, another compatible strip family may be more appropriate and economical. Select supplies based on paper characteristics, machine compatibility, desired finish, and production requirements. When a document combines ordinary paper with coated covers or inserts, test the complete assembly rather than judging each material separately. The binding result depends on how the adhesive contacts the entire spine, not just the majority of the sheets.

Confirm the machine model, strip length, strip width, paper type, cover materials, and document thickness. Prepare a complete sample using the actual printed sheets rather than blank substitutes, since coatings and print processes can affect bonding. Inspect the spine after binding and allow the document to cool before testing the finished result. Compatible Fastback binding machines should be operated according to the strip and material instructions. Keep the approved settings and supply details with the job record if the same document will be produced again.
