Heavy Duty Deal Jackets

A deal jacket that splits open in a filing cabinet three years later is a real problem, not a small one. Heavy duty jackets use thicker stock so they hold a full file without tearing at the seams, survive repeated handling, and stay intact through the retention period. If your deals run thick with financing paperwork, this is the tier to buy.

100# Stock

The step up from standard 32# Kraft. The plain heavy duty deal jacket SA1220-HD measures 9-3/8in x 12in with a 1/2in extension for extra capacity, and comes in seven colors: blue, buff, green, pink, lavender, yellow, and white. The pre-printed version SA1221-HD is the same jacket printed in black ink with the standard vehicle sale fields.

150# Ultra Heavy Duty Stock

The thickest deal jacket in the industry. Plain ultra heavy duty deal jackets come in buff, white, blue, green, and yellow with no printing, and pre-printed ultra heavy duty deal jackets carry all standard vehicle sale information in black ink. At 150# these hold the heaviest files and are worth the difference on deals that get pulled and refiled repeatedly.

Body Shop

The pre-printed ultra heavy duty body shop jacket is 150# stock printed on both sides with repair order information, built for the shop environment where jackets get handled with dirty hands and stacked on benches. See also body shop repair order jackets.

Plain or Pre-Printed

Pre-printed jackets carry the standard vehicle sale fields, so staff fill in blanks rather than writing headings and files stay consistent across the desk. Plain jackets cost slightly less and suit dealerships using their own stamp, label, or DMS printout. Neither carries your dealership name; for that, see custom printed deal jackets, which are printed with your dealership information and your own fields.

FAQ

What makes a deal jacket heavy duty?

Paper weight. Standard jackets use 32# Kraft stock. Heavy duty uses 100# stock, and ultra heavy duty uses 150# stock, the thickest available. Higher weight resists tearing at the seams under a thick file and holds up to being pulled from a drawer repeatedly over years.

Do I need 100# or 150# stock?

100# handles most dealership volume and is the common upgrade from standard. Choose 150# if your deals include heavy financing documentation, if jackets are accessed frequently after the sale, or if you keep files for long retention periods. The cost difference per jacket is small against the cost of rebuilding a file that fell apart.

Do pre-printed jackets include my dealership name?

No. Pre-printed jackets are printed in black ink with the standard vehicle sale fields such as year, make, model, VIN, and purchase date, the same on every jacket. To add your dealership name, address, and logo, or your own fields, order custom printed deal jackets.

What colors are available?

100# plain jackets come in seven colors: blue, buff, green, pink, lavender, yellow, and white. 150# plain jackets come in five: buff, white, blue, green, and yellow. Most dealerships use color to separate new from used, financed from cash, or by department, so a file is found by sight.

Is there a heavy duty jacket for the body shop?

Yes. The ultra heavy duty body shop jacket is 150# stock printed on both sides with repair order information rather than vehicle sale fields, sized at 9-1/2in x 11-3/4in. See auto body shop supplies for related forms and jackets.
