Pressboard file folder with 1" expansion

Smead model 18230 is a legal-size pressboard folder built for heavy daily use. Each folder expands one inch with a Tyvek gusset to hold bulky documents. The box contains 25 folders made from 60% recycled material. Gray-green colour coding helps identify categories at a glance.

Offices that archive large case files

Suits legal departments, government agencies and accounting firms that keep thick, frequently accessed records. The 1/3 cut top tabs in assorted positions work with standard filing systems. Buyers who need letter-size folders or a smaller expansion should look at other options.

1" Tyvek gusset expansion

The accordion-pleat gusset opens a full inch so folders stay intact when stuffed with hundreds of sheets. 25-point pressboard covers resist tearing at the edges and corners. This single feature determines whether the folder can handle your thickest files.

Questions about this item

What does the 1/3 top tab cut mean for labelling these legal folders?

The 1/3 cut divides the top edge into three equal tab positions; each folder has its tab in one of those positions so you can stagger labels across the drawer.

What drawer depth is required to fit the 14-inch legal folders with the 1-inch expansion fully opened?

The folder body is 14 inches long, so a standard legal drawer at least 14 inches deep will hold it; the 1-inch gusset expands sideways, not front-to-back.

How do you set up the Tyvek gusset so the folder actually expands to the full inch?

Open the folder flat, then gently pull the front and back covers apart until the accordion-pleat gusset unfolds fully; the double-thickness Tyvek locks at the 1-inch mark.
