Smead Fastener File Folders, Letter Size, Purple, Reinforced 1/3-Cut Top Tab, 2 Fasteners, 11pt, 50/Box (13040)

Add a bold, easy-to-spot color to your filing system with Smead’s Purple Fastener File Folders, item 13040. These letter-size folders pair sturdy 11 pt colored stock with a reinforced 1/3-cut top tab, so your labels hold up in drawers that see constant traffic.

Each folder includes two 2" prong K-style fasteners on the inside front and back panels, giving you two filing surfaces for organizing paperwork in a set order. The spine is scored to expand up to 3/4", so one folder can handle a full project from kickoff notes to final signed documents. The rich purple color stands out instantly, whether you’re coding by department, urgency or document type.

These fastener folders work well as case files, medical or dental charts, HR packets, financial files or project jackets—anywhere pages need to stay put and in sequence. The durable construction holds up to repeated opening and refiling in active cabinets, desktop sorters and shared file rooms.

Round out your system with filing labels for neatly printed folder tabs and color-coding strips you can read at a glance.
