Document tab index ESSELTE 100161 — width 225 mm, height 3 mm

The ESSELTE 100161 document tab index is a slim, lightweight divider designed for organizing paperwork and improving document navigation. With a width of 225 mm and a height of 3 mm, this index provides a narrow but visible tab edge for labeling sections in binders, files and folders. It is intended for office and archive environments where compact tab separation and easy referencing are required.

Advantages

The narrow 3 mm tab minimizes space taken inside a file while still offering a readable area for handwritten or printed labels. At 225 mm wide, the tab index fits standard A4-sized documents and most ring binders, providing consistent alignment across stacked dividers. The lightweight construction reduces bulk and is suitable for both temporary and long-term filing needs without significantly increasing folder thickness.

How to use

Insert the ESSELTE tab index between document sections or into the ring mechanism of a binder so the tab edge is visible when the binder is closed. Apply labels directly to the tab using a pen, pencil, or adhesive label, ensuring clear legibility. Position multiple tab indices at consistent intervals to create an organized, easy-to-navigate filing system.

Recommendations

For optimal durability and readability, use printed adhesive labels or a fine-tip permanent marker on the tab edge. Avoid overstuffing binders to prevent bending or creasing of the 3 mm tab; distribute documents evenly and use additional dividers when section thickness increases.
