Hole reinforcement ring

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If perforated and filed sheets are often removed from the folder or if the pages are turned over, the perforations can fray or tear as a result of mechanical stress. Such damage can usually be repaired with hole reinforcement rings , or hole reinforcements for short.

The self-adhesive rings made of plastic film fix the damaged paper in the desired position and reinforce it against further damage. Hole reinforcements can also be attached as a precaution so as not to let it tear out in the first place. They are also used in the craft sector for this purpose . The foil is usually white or transparent. In the past, a kind of kraft paper was used. The hole reinforcement rings are supplied in sheets or in a dispenser box.

Since the sheets reinforced in this way become slightly thicker, fewer sheets than before can possibly be filed in a folder.
