5 × 3 × 8 in straight tuck end (ste) dieline

This dieline was generated at exactly 5 × 3 × 8 in (127.0 × 203.2 × 76.2 mm) by the same structural engine that produces our factory print files — every panel, flap and glue zone computed for this size, not stretched from a template.

What fits in 5 × 3 × 8 in

The everyday e-commerce size: apparel, a small electronics bundle, a two-to-three item subscription box.

Shipping note: carriers bill the greater of actual and dimensional weight. At 5 × 3 × 8 in the dimensional weight is about 0.9 lb (US domestic divisor 139), so if your product is lighter than that, the box size — not the product — is setting your freight cost.

5 × 3 × 8 in straight tuck end (ste) — questions people ask

What are the actual dimensions of a 5 × 3 × 8 in straight tuck end (ste)?

5 × 3 × 8 in is the FINISHED internal size — the space your product actually occupies. Flat, before folding, the die measures 424 × 399 mm (16.71" × 15.7"), which is the sheet size a printer needs to quote the job. That works out to 120 cubic inches (1.97 litres) of internal capacity.

What is the dimensional weight of a 5 × 3 × 8 in box?

About 0.9 lb at the US domestic divisor of 139. Carriers bill whichever is greater — actual weight or dimensional weight — so for anything light and bulky this is the number that sets your shipping cost. Dropping a dimension by an inch is often cheaper than negotiating a rate.

Can I get a 5 × 3 × 8 in straight tuck end (ste) custom printed?

Yes. Design it free on this exact dieline — the artwork lands on the real structure, not a mockup — and runs start at 100 units. You can also export the print-ready file and take it to any printer.
