Legal Classification Folders for High-Volume Filing
These Smead pressboard folders are built for offices that manage heavy legal-size documents. Each box contains 10 folders with 2-inch expansion capacity. The 25 pt. stock and SafeSHIELD fasteners protect papers from tearing at punch points. They suit legal practices, government agencies, and corporate records rooms.
Fastener Setup and Tab Configuration
Two embedded fasteners anchor a single divider, creating four distinct filing surfaces inside one cover. The 2/5 cut self-tabs sit right of centre for clear label visibility. Installers simply press the prongs through pre-punched sheets; the coated tips prevent snagging. Misaligned holes are the only common issue during loading.
Capacity Limits and Overflow Handling
Each fastener secures up to 2 inches of material, so the folder handles thick case files or multi-year archives. The 8 1/2 by 14 inch sheet size fits standard legal pages without folding. Once the 2-inch expansion is reached, the cover will not close flat and a second folder becomes necessary.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the folder expands to the stated 2" capacity after loading it?
Fill the folder with legal-size sheets up to the 2" expansion limit; the SafeSHIELD fastener and 25 pt. pressboard cover should hold the contents securely without the cover bowing or the fastener releasing.
What comes in the box and what must I supply separately?
The box contains 10 classification folders, each with a 2/5 cut self-tab cover, one divider and two fasteners; you will need to provide your own legal-size 8 1/2" x 14" paper.
Which version should I choose for a four-section legal filing system?
Select the 18776 model — it is the four-section, 2" expansion, gray-green pressboard folder with 2/5 cut tabs and SafeSHIELD fasteners, packed 10 per box.
