TUFF Pocket Legal Expansion Files

Smead 74790 TUFF Pocket expansion file pockets are built for legal-size documents that exceed standard folder capacity. The 5.25 inch gusset holds bulky case files, project binders or archived records without tearing. Heavy-duty Redrope panels and a fully lined gusset resist ripping when pulled from crowded shelves. Each box contains 10 pockets for high-volume filing systems.

Practical limits of 5.25 inch expansion

The 5.25 inch gusset defines the maximum thickness this pocket can accommodate before the reinforcement strips reach full stretch. Overstuffing beyond that point stresses the rollover top and hidden reinforcement, reducing the tear-resistant lining's effectiveness. Legal-width documents fit the front-to-back dimension, but letter-size pages will leave unused width. The straight-cut tab works with standard legal hanging rails only.

Check your existing setup before ordering

Verify that your filing cabinet or shelf accepts legal-size pockets with a 5.25 inch expansion depth when fully loaded. Confirm the drawer or shelf height clears the pocket's front panel plus the gusset at maximum fill. Ensure your hanging rails or shelf dividers are spaced for straight-tab legal pockets, not angled or letter-width formats. The Redrope colour matches existing Smead Redrope supplies for visual consistency.
