Don’t try and stuff sheets to the maximum amount the rings can hold.
In other words, the thickness of your materials must be less than the diameter (O-ring) or length (D-ring) of your binder’s rings.Īnd another courteous thing to consider – give your users a little extra breathing room. Remember, the ring must be large enough to go around all of your sheets. One of our sales consultants will be happy to recommend a ring capacity to you. If your sheets are thicker, you will need to reduce these numbers. The table below shows capacities for standard size/thickness paper. 3-ring binders with D-shaped rings hold up to 25% more sheets. Sheet capacity for a D-ring binder on the other hand is based on the length of straight part of the ring, which generally ranges between one and three inches. Standard binder ring diameters range from 1/2 of an inch to 3 inches. To avoid this calamity, be sure the diameter of the rings on your binders you’re using can accommodate the number of sheets your handouts will include!įor O-Ring binders, the diameter of the ring (…not the width of the spine) is the determining factor of how many sheets a 3-ring binder will hold. This will no doubt leave a negative impression on your boss or potential client and may put your entire effort in jeopardy. In the case of 3-ring binders, properly separating materials for easy reference using dividers is one important organizational item to bear in mind.īut more fundamentally, the size of the three rings in your binders is crucial to consider – if they’re too small, all your materials may not fit at all and if they do, your user will have much difficulty turning pages and likely will tear pages from the rings. One seemingly innocent part of organizing your materials can have a powerful impact on the impression you and your team has on those receiving materials. Besides communicating main points and other important information, materials you provide need to be organized in a logical way that’s easy to use. You have a lot on your mind – especially if your materials need to make the right impression on your boss or a potential client. Preparing for a meeting or important presentation is no doubt hectic.
