AVERY 74787 Writeable Polyester Index Tabs 50.8 x 38 mm, Pack

Writable polyester tab labels from AVERY, sized 50.8 x 38 mm, provide a durable marking solution for files, folders and binders. The polyester material resists tearing, moisture and everyday wear while offering a smooth writable surface compatible with pens and permanent markers. These tab labels are designed for clear, long-lasting identification in office, archive and document-management environments where legibility and durability are required.

Advantages

The polyester construction ensures robust resistance to abrasion and moisture, extending the lifespan of labels in frequently handled folders. The writable surface accepts a wide range of writing tools, enabling quick hand-labeling without the need for a printer. Tabs are dimensioned for clear visibility and can be positioned on folder edges or binder inserts to streamline retrieval and filing. Using polyester material reduces the risk of label deformation and keeps printed or handwritten text legible over time.

Suitable for

• Office filing and folder organization
• Archiving documents that require long-term identification
• Library or records management systems
• Temporary or permanent labeling of binders and dividers

Key specifications

• Material: writable polyester
• Label dimensions: 50.8 x 38 mm

• Durability: tear-resistant and moisture-resistant construction
• Typical use: manual application on file edges, folders and binders

How to use

Peel a tab label from the backing and apply it to a clean, dry surface on the folder or binder edge, pressing firmly to ensure adhesion. Write the required information directly on the label using a pen, fine-point marker or permanent marker; allow ink to dry briefly before stacking or filing. For consistent placement, align the tab with the folder edge or use a template for repeated positioning on multiple items.

Recommendations

For best results, store labels in a cool, dry place prior to use and apply them at room temperature. Avoid using water-based inks if long-term legibility is required; permanent markers provide more durable results on polyester. When labeling archival materials, test compatibility of inks on a single tab before large-scale application.
