1-Inch Expansion Fastener Folder

The Smead 19931 is a legal-size file folder with a one-inch expansion fastener that holds thick document sets securely. Each box contains 25 folders in a gray-green finish. The 1/3 top tab position supports clear labeling in standard filing systems. First listed by the manufacturer in 2009, this folder suits offices that need durable, high-capacity paper storage.

Ideal for High-Volume Legal Filing

These folders serve legal practices, compliance teams and archives that accumulate bulky case files or project records. The expansion depth keeps large stacks aligned without splitting across multiple folders. Buyers who only handle light letter-size paperwork or who prefer non-expanding folders will find the extra capacity unnecessary. The fastener design also requires manual fastening, which may not suit fully automated filing workflows.

Consistent Performance Under Full Load

When filled to the one-inch expansion limit, the fastener maintains tension and the folder body resists bowing during daily retrieval. The reinforced tab area stays legible after repeated drawer cycling. The gray-green stock resists edge wear better than standard manila folders in high-traffic cabinets. No degradation in closure security is observed over extended use cycles.

Questions about this item

Does the Smead 19931 folder require a legal-size filing cabinet or drawer to fit properly?

Yes, the folder is sized for legal documents so it needs a legal-width drawer or cabinet; the 1-inch expansion fastener allows the folder to thicken as you add more papers.

Can I mix these gray-green folders with older manila folders in the same drawer without jamming?

The 1/3 top tabs align with standard tab positions, so they sit alongside older folders without offset; the expansion fastener simply adds depth when the folder is full.

How can I confirm the expansion fastener is holding the stated capacity after I load the folder?

Fasten the metal prongs through the punched holes; the folder should expand smoothly to about one inch thick and the cover should close flat without bulging.
