A-16 Appendix A—Specifications

Gluing. Gluing specifications for multipart forms are as follows:

•Spot gluing should be applied along both sides.

•Spot-gluing should be applied at the alternate positions from the top to bottom sheet.

•Glue should be applied evenly without wrinkling or creasing.

•Paper thickness change due to gluing should not exceed 0.05 mm.

Crimp Fastening. Crimp specifications for multipart forms are as follows:

•Double crimp fasteners (4-tail) should be applied to the same positions on both sides of the forms. (See the figure on the next page.)

Single crimp fasteners (4-tail) are also acceptable.

•In consideration of displacement between the top and bottom layers, a spacing of at least 1/3 in. should be used for form design.

•Displacement between sheets in 5-part forms should not exceed

2.2 mm in self-print testing.

•The combination of gluing on one side and crimp fasteners on the other side is allowed.

•The crimp fastener pitch should be a maximum of 2 in.

When the total thickness of forms is 0.3 mm or less and the paper width is 10 in. or less, a pitch of 3 in. is allowed.
