Organize with 100 red letter folders

Smead 12743 folders arrive in a 100-count box, each made from 11-point stock with a single-ply 1/3-cut top tab. The red colour supports instant visual sorting for high-volume filing systems. Scored fronts allow 3/4-inch expansion so bulky documents stay flat. Rounded top corners and an undercut front panel reduce snags during frequent handling.

Replace manila folders for colour-coded speed

Switching from single-colour manila to these red tabs lets a team locate files by colour instead of reading every label. The jump pays off when retrieval time matters more than cost per folder. If the workflow already uses multiple colours, adding red completes the palette without changing tab positions or folder dimensions.

Fit standard letter drawers and shelves

These folders sit in any letter-size drawer, shelf or hanging frame that accepts top-tab folders. The 1/3-cut tabs align with existing guides so no hardware changes are needed. Expansion scoring frees up capacity inside each folder, letting you consolidate several thin files into one before a new drawer becomes necessary.

Questions about this item

Will the 1/3-cut top tabs fit my standard letter-size hanging rails?

Yes, these folders are cut to letter dimensions with 1/3-cut top tabs that sit on standard rails.

What is the common mistake when loading the 100 folders into a drawer?

Overfilling past the 3/4-inch score line; stop at the crease so the front panel stays flat.

When should I replace a folder from this 100-count box?

Replace when the 11-point stock tears, the tab bends, or the expansion crease no longer holds shape.
