FEFCO 0711 pre-glued auto bottom with rsc top flaps vs 0201 RSC: side-by-side numbers
0711 (Pre-glued auto bottom with RSC top flaps) and 0201 (Regular slotted container) differ in how the box closes and how much board it takes. The regular slotted container is the standard shipping box: one blank, four panels, and top and bottom flaps all cut to half the box width so the outer flaps meet in the middle.
Flap rules
| Part | 0711 | 0201 RSC |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Top flaps: W ÷ 2 (RSC) | Outer flaps, top and bottom: W ÷ 2 |
| 2 | Bottom: pre-glued self-locking panels | Inner flaps, top and bottom: W ÷ 2 |
| 3 | Manufacturer's joint: glue tab, about 1¼ in | |
| Closure | The bottom closes itself; the top is taped or glued like an RSC. | Tape along the center seam, glue the outer flaps to the inner flaps, or staple. A fill-in pad between the inner flaps gives a flat floor when the product needs one. |
