Swingline SWI1701857CM Thermal Pouch Laminator 9 Inch

Product Description

The SWINGLINE SWI1701857CM is a 9-inch thermal pouch laminator designed for straightforward document and photo protection in office and school environments. It reaches operating temperature in 4 minutes and runs on a single power setting, reducing setup time and operator error. Compatible with both 3 mil and 5 mil lamination pouches, it also includes a cold mode for pressure-sensitive self-adhesive pouches that do not require heat. A jam-release lever allows quick clearing of misfeeds without damaging documents or requiring service calls. The unit ships with a starter pack of letter-size thermal pouches. Licensed trade professionals and office administrators will find this unit a reliable, low-complexity addition to any document-finishing station.

This laminator is suited for light-to-moderate duty use in offices, schools, and print rooms. Typical applications include laminating certificates, ID cards, reference sheets, photos, and instructional documents. The 9-inch throat width accommodates standard letter-size pouches and most common document formats. The cold option expands usability to self-adhesive pouch materials that would be damaged by heat, making this unit more versatile than single-mode thermal-only laminators.
