Fargo 82136 UltraCard Premium CR80 Composite Cards (500 Pack)
Product Description
The Fargo 82136 UltraCard Premium Composite Cards are high-performance CR80 cards engineered for durability, flexibility, and superior print quality. Made from a 60/40 composite blend of PVC and polyester (PET), these cards are specifically designed to withstand heat-intensive processes like lamination and retransfer printing without warping.
Ideal for professional ID programs, access control badges, and high-security credentials, the 82136 delivers a smooth, glossy surface for sharp image reproduction, crisp text, and scannable barcodes. Compared to standard PVC cards, composite cards offer significantly improved durability—making them the preferred choice for long-term use and demanding environments.
Manufactured as part of the UltraCard Premium line, each card is optically inspected to ensure a clean, debris-free surface that helps extend printhead life and maintain consistent output.
