MSR HiCo Magnetic Stripe High-Quality White PVC Cards – Blank ID & Access Media
High-quality white PVC cards featuring an integrated High-Coercivity (HiCo) magnetic stripe are engineered for applications requiring robust data retention and secure encoding, such as hotel room key cards, financial/loyalty programs, and high-frequency access control systems. Built to standard CR80 dimensions with a durable 30 mil thickness, these cards combine a smooth mirror-gloss printable surface for direct-to-card and retransfer printers with a resistant 2750 to 4000 Oe magnetic strip that resists accidental data erasure from external magnetic fields.
