With all-metal construction, the HD8000 wire closer offers a durable, cost-effective solution for all wire closing requirements. The dual adjusting closing feature with left and right adjustment knobs ensures wire is closed evenly on all sizes from 3/16" to 1-1/4" diameter. A reversible binding handle allows the operator to select right or left-handed operation. As well, a reversible top closing bar, exclusive to the unit, allows the operator to choose either an abrasive or smooth closing surface depending on preference or wire size. This machine offers a wide 14" throat and is open on both ends for closing larger projects. The HD8000 wire closer is a stand-alone unit that can be mounted on compatible punches by means of an optional mounting kit. For increased productivity, a wire hanger for holding wire in place so punched sheets can be easily hung onto the double-loop wire can be attached to the HD8000.
