Smead SMD12743 File Folder Letter 1/3-cut Red Box of 100

Product Description

The SMEAD SMD12743 is a red letter-size file folder built for standard document filing and color-coded organization systems. Constructed from 11 point single-ply stock, these folders are suited for files accessed infrequently, offering an economical option without sacrificing durability. Each folder features 1/3-cut tabs measuring 1/2 inch high, an undercut front panel for easier access, and rounded top corners for smooth handling. The folder body is scored to expand up to 3/4 inch, accommodating thicker document sets without distorting the folder shape. Sold in a box of 100.

These folders are designed for letter-size documents and fit standard lateral and vertical file drawers sized for letter-format filing. The red color supports color-coded filing systems commonly used in offices, legal environments, medical records departments, and administrative settings to speed up document retrieval and reduce misfiling. The 1/3-cut tab position allows for staggered tab placement across a drawer when used alongside other 1/3-cut folders in the same system.

Installation Notes

These folders are installed by office and records management personnel and require no tools.

Avoid overfilling individual folders beyond the scored expansion limit to prevent folder damage and misfiling.
