Mühlen Pens 5 — Spiral Coil Closing Pliers for Finished Bindings
Who Is It For?
The Mühlen Pens 5 spiral coil closing pliers are a small, palm-held hand tool for print shops, stationery stores, offices, schools and binding services that work with coil (spiral) binding. After a booklet has been bound, the open ends of the spring-like coil have to be crimped so the coil cannot work its way out of the pages. The Pens 5 is made specifically for this last step and makes it quick and easy.

Why do coil ends need to be closed?
Without crimping, the spring-like coil can slip out of the bound booklet. Bending the ends inward keeps it secured.
How do I hold the Pens 5 correctly?
Hold it with the red-dot marked side facing up; when you squeeze or cut the coil end, the pliers bend it inward automatically.
Which coil sizes does it work with?
It is suitable for spiral coils of every length, thickness and width.
Does the Pens 5 come with a warranty?
Yes, the Mühlen Pens 5 is covered by a 24-month warranty.
Usage and Care Tips
Finish inserting the coil completely before crimping, then crimp both exposed ends. Always check that the red dot faces up so the bend goes toward the inside of the binding. Keep the pliers in a dry place with your other binding supplies so they are ready for the next job.
