Formax ReadyWire 2M Manual Punch & Binding System - 2:1 Pitch
The Formax ReadyWire 2M is a heavy-duty, compact manual punching and binding system designed for offices and organizations with low to moderate binding volumes. Its rugged all-metal construction, smooth manual operation, and precision vertical punching system provide reliable performance while maintaining an easy, ergonomic workflow from punching through binding.
The precision vertical punching system uses gravity to help keep sheets properly positioned for consistent hole placement, even when working with larger document sets. Setup and adjustments are quick and easy, with no tools required, while individually disengageable punch pins allow selected holes to be disabled to help prevent partially punched holes on different paper sizes.
The ReadyWire 2M uses a versatile 2:1 pitch format and supports double-loop wire diameters from 1/4" to 1-1/2". It can bind booklets containing up to 340 sheets. Finished wire-bound documents open a full 360 degrees and lay flat for convenient reading, writing, scanning, and presentations.

Precision Vertical Punching
The ReadyWire 2M uses a vertical punching configuration that utilizes gravity to keep sheets in position during punching. This helps provide consistent hole placement across document sets while supporting punching widths from 0.39" to 14".
Flexible Punching Setup
Individually disengageable punch pins make it possible to disable selected pins when necessary, helping prevent partially punched holes when working with different document sizes. Access to the punch pins and other adjustments requires no tools, simplifying setup between jobs.
Versatile 2:1 Wire Binding
The 2:1 pitch configuration accommodates a broad range of double-loop wire sizes from 1/4" through 1-1/2", supporting finished booklets of up to 340 sheets. An integrated wire comb holding device assists with page positioning prior to binding, while closure control and parallel adjustments help support accurate wire closure.
Completed wire-bound documents can open a full 360 degrees and lay flat, making them well suited for reports, manuals, presentations, reference materials, and other frequently handled documents.
