Mylar-Reinforced Index Tabs

★★★★★5.0 from 1 verified review

Mylar reinforcing is what separates a professional index tab from one that tears out of the binder after a few weeks. Tabzoola bonds a tough, clear Mylar film along the three-hole-punched edge of every paper tab, so the holes and edge resist tearing through heavy daily use.

It's the standard finish for legal, medical, and high-handling binders — and you can add it to any custom paper tab set.

Why Mylar reinforcing matters

The binder edge takes all the stress — every page turn and re-file pulls on the punched holes. A bonded Mylar strip spreads that stress and keeps the holes from elongating or tearing, dramatically extending the life of the set compared with plain paper tabs.

Add it to any custom set

Mylar reinforcing is an option on every paper tab order — numbered, alphabetical, monthly, or fully custom. Pick your colors (19 available), cut, and printing, and add reinforcing in the designer.

Can I add Mylar reinforcing to any tab order?
