Finishing
Index tabbing
Index tabs for dividers, folders and manuals: our tabbing machine seals clear Mylar over the edge and cuts the tab in the position you set, so it won't tear. Plain tabs, without Mylar, too.

Index tabbing · questions
What people ask first.
How many tab positions run down the edge before the pattern repeats. In a 5-bank set each divider's tab sits one position lower than the last. Put the bank and tab size on the quote.
Mylar tabs have clear film sealed over the edge so they don't tear; plain tabs skip the film. Both are cut in the position you set.
