Smead SMD73689 End Tab Pocket Folder 5.25 in Expansion 10pk

Product Description

The SMEAD SMD73689 is an extra-wide end-tab pocket folder engineered to hold standard top-tab folders without bulging or distorting. The pocket expands up to 5.25 inches, making it well suited for high-volume document storage in legal, administrative, and records management environments. Fully lined gussets reinforce the expansion panels along the full depth of the pocket, while additional front panel gusset reinforcement keeps the folder square under load. A straight-cut tab runs the full width of the back panel, providing a clean surface for typed or handwritten labels. Each box contains 10 folders. The unit weight is 2.9 pounds per box.

This folder is designed for organizing depositions, discovery materials, correspondence packets, and client case files. It is a practical solution for transferring contents from desk drawer folders to central filing systems. The extra-wide profile accommodates accumulated paper loads that standard-capacity folders cannot handle, reducing the need to split file contents across multiple folders. Offices handling legal documentation, case files, and reference archives will find this format efficient for lateral or shelf filing systems where end-tab visibility matters.

Installation Notes

No tools are required to place these folders into a filing system. When loading, avoid exceeding the 5.25-inch expansion limit to preserve gusset integrity over time. For shelf filing, confirm that the shelf depth accommodates the folder dimensions of 10.5 inches wide before ordering in bulk. Label the straight-cut tab before inserting into the file to ensure consistent indexing across the filing system.
