Product Information
Full details
The 5 Star Card Index Box is an essential storage solution for students, researchers, and office professionals looking to organize flashcards, notes, or reference documents in a structured manner. Its primary benefit is the combination of a compact 6x4-inch footprint with a durable, transparent plastic design that makes it easy to categorize and locate information quickly. While it offers excellent protection for standard-sized index cards, users should note that the fixed dimensions mean it cannot accommodate documents larger than the 6x4-inch format.

FAQs
Does this box come with index dividers?
No, the box is sold as a storage unit; index dividers can be purchased separately to help categorize your cards.
Can it hold A6 sized cards?
A6 is approximately 5.8 x 4.1 inches, which is slightly different from the 6x4 format; please measure your cards carefully to ensure a fit.
Is the material BPA free?
The product is made from high-quality, durable plastic intended for office storage; it is not intended for food storage.
Can the box be stacked?
While the design is stable, it is not explicitly designed for interlocking stacking; use caution if stacking multiple units.
What is the primary material?
It is constructed from high-quality, clear, tough plastic for long-lasting performance.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels loose
Ensure the box is placed on a flat, level surface; the lid is designed for dust protection rather than a pressurized seal.
Cards sticking together
Plastic can sometimes build up static electricity; gently fan your index cards before filing to ensure smooth navigation.
Surface scuffing
Avoid using harsh chemicals or scouring pads for cleaning, as these will cloud the crystal finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your index box is straightforward: simply insert your 6x4-inch index cards vertically or horizontally depending on your preference. To maximize the efficiency of the box, use adhesive tabs or custom card dividers to label sections by topic or date. Compatibility is limited specifically to cards measuring 6x4 inches; avoid forcing larger documents into the unit as it may crack the plastic or bend your records. For care and maintenance, wipe the exterior and interior with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the box becomes smudged, use a slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth and allow it to air dry fully before replacing your paper cards to prevent moisture damage.
