Fargo 82279 UltraCard CR79 Adhesive Mylar-Backed PVC Cards (500 Pack)

Product Description

The Fargo 82279 UltraCard Adhesive Mylar-Backed PVC Cards are premium CR79 cards designed for seamless application to proximity and clamshell access control cards. Featuring a durable Mylar adhesive backing, these cards provide superior feeding performance and enhanced durability compared to standard paper-backed adhesive cards.

Ideal for organizations using non-printable prox cards, the 82279 allows you to print high-quality photo IDs, barcodes, and credentials on a smooth PVC surface—then securely apply them to existing cards without replacing your access control system.
