Dimensions in W × D × H order. Millimeters converted at 1 in = 25.4 mm and rounded to one decimal. Interior dimensions are identical for both models. Stack strength is the rated load when boxes are fully stacked.
What the numbers mean
The 703 and R-Kive share the same interior cavity — 12 in wide, 15 in deep, and 10 in tall — so both hold the same number of files. The difference is in the wall construction: the 703 uses lighter corrugated board and is rated to stack at 450 lb, while the R-Kive uses heavier multi-ply board and is rated to 850 lb, almost double.
Letter-size paper (8.5 × 11 in) stands upright with 3.5 in of depth to spare and 1.5 in of width clearance. Legal-size paper (8.5 × 14 in) stands upright with 1 in of depth to spare. Both fit comfortably — the box depth accommodates a full hanging file folder with tab, and the height accommodates papers above the folder tops.
Because the R-Kive exterior is only 0.3 in wider than the 703, they occupy nearly the same shelf footprint. If you are filling a single shelf row, either model will leave roughly the same gap. If you are mixing models on one shelf, the 0.3 in difference per box will add up: ten R-Kive boxes take 3 in more shelf width than ten 703 boxes.
The interior volume of both models is 12 × 15 × 10 = 1,800 cu in (1.04 cu ft). A standard file box holds roughly 2,000 sheets of 20 lb bond paper, or about 10–15 hanging file folders with documents.
