The spaceband is a variable word space used in line typecasting machine to justify a line of type. It consists of a sleeve and a long tapered wedge. Just prior to the of type being cast, the wedge is driven up to equally space the words of the line to a predetermined line length. Spacebands were used on both Linotype and Intertype machines.
