Several pronged folders are described as holding 3-hole‑punched sheets or using three prongs/metal clasps to store 3-hole punched material; some folders are explicitly 3-hole punched to fit binders.
Pack sizes range from single folders up to bulk packs; common package quantities include 1, 6, 12, 25 and 100.
