Hardcover Bookbinding
Named on the source site as: hand and Tail band, Headband for book, hardcover binding.
The job the strap has to do
Binderies need short-repeat decorative head and tail bands that sit cleanly on a trimmed book block.
Book head and tail bands (also called bookbinding tape or book edge tape) with decorative edge stitching. On-site material notes: cotton headbands are flexible and easy to adhere; linen is stronger but less pliable; polyester gives lower structural support and is generally not recommended where hardcover durability is required.
