Would these handle a standard hardcover book about 9.5x6.5x1.5" . Someone noted that sharp corners could be problem... would kraft paper be better? thx, JG

We use them to ship light objects CD in cardboard cover etc. I would not use them for a hard back book. They would not hold up. The heaviest item we have shipped is a 6 disc plastic DVD size case and it had a manageable damage rate of 2 or 3 per 100, but was very light &lt;4oz. Avg hard back book is over a pound + .

I'm not sure what you mean. I have used it without difficulty with a hardcover textbook of 1300+ pages. It holds that solidly.

I am using mine on a one inch thick white pine board. I believe this is the max you are going to get out of them. They are quite sturdy and could be used as book ends. Now saying that, I would not overload them with college textbooks, not sure if they could handle that much weight on their own.

They will hold a great deal. I just tried seven sheets and it could probably take more overlapped. To release the paper grab it from the upper half and slide to either side until it starts to free itself and then it will just drop out. It's a well-made and useful product, I am very happy with it! Cheers, Gary

I am not 100% sure on that. I used them in an album I ordered and they are slightly larger than the pages it came with but I am fine with that. Hope that helps!:-)

I haven't used the book rack yet, but I think it would be plenty sturdy for a paperback. One thing I will suggest is gluing a little strip of non-slip rubber grippers on the bottom of the edges. I've have mine slip a few times from being lightly bumped.

Paperbacks will fit it but obviously it'll depend on the size of the book. A bigger sized book may have to stand up versus being on its side. As far as weight, it's very sturdy. Weight won't be an issue.

I have a mixture of hardback and paperback cookbooks on my shelves and they are holding up fine. If they are average size books, I would say you should be fine. However if you are using them for college size text books on a full shelf, I might hesitate in the purchase. Also I am not accessing my books everyday like you may in a classroom. If you are working with small kids who might climb on the shelves than I would not purchase it for a classroom.

I don't know for sure but they so seem pretty sturdy. I don't think I would load every shelf with hard bound books. But spreading the weight over several shelves and putting lighter weight items in between, would probably work great.

I wouldn't advise putting anything that is thicker than, say, 1/4 inch - maybe even 1/8 inch because the sleeves are very lightweight - how should I put it...They are not a thick gauge thT would support mulltiple pages. They are thin, so your multi-page document might slip around a bit. One more thing - I lay my books flat I wouldn't advise standing them up on a bookshelf because the pages, again, don't have the thickness to stand rigid. Hope I'm explaining this correctly.

I apologize for not answering that better. The holes line up perfectly. The top and bottom are fine as well. Seeing the actual case had 4 small 3 ring sets, I grabbed up two 3 inch binders and loaded them full of the DVD sleeves. The 3 inch binder was fine until I added the DVDs / Covers / books to it. Once the binder was a full 3 inches thick, the sleeves arched way out and forced the binder to hang 4-5 inches off of my shelf. If you have deep shelves, and don't mind the ends of the sleeves sticking way out of the binders, it will work fine. Again, I apologize for not making that clearer the first time. -JD I apologize for not answering that better. The holes line up perfectly. The top and bottom are fine as well.

I don't know about board books. These are great for most kids' toys. That is actually what I bought them for. They are smaller in diameter than a dime, if that helps any!

No, they go in a book that is much smaller. They hold two 4x6" cards. Mine are packed away or I'd go measure them for you.

They will not fit into a standard 3-ring binder. I went ahead and got the matching binder and I'm glad I did, because once you put disks and liner notes in the pages, the weight really adds up; I don't think a regular binder could handle it.

it would depend on the height of the paperback. I used it to hold a dvd collection and there is a 1/2 inch or so clearance on the height . I hope this help

The plastic sleeves can hold material up to 9 1/8" x 12 1/4". It wouldn't be recommended however to push the 9 1/8" dimension to its limit if the material/medium is stiff due to the page turning/portfolio design. The portfolio should be fine for most 9" x 12" drawings.

This will not work on paperbacks. I don't have that much hardcovers as well but if you have one or two that you can use as the base, the rest that you put on top of that book will be good.
