Vault X Semi-Rigid Trading Card Holders 50-Pack Clear Hard Sleeves for Grading
These Vault X semi-rigid card holders are designed for standard-sized trading and sports cards, with an internal pocket measuring 81 x 108 mm. Each sleeve can accommodate cards up to 55pt thickness, making them suitable for everyday storage or preparing submissions for card grading. The pack includes 50 clear holders made from archival-safe PVC that resists chemical migration.
What sets these semi-rigid holders apart?
The key design feature is the 1/2-inch lip at the opening, which allows smooth, damage-free insertion and removal of cards. Unlike some rigid sleeves, these holders provide enough flexibility to hold cards securely without bending them. The PVC material is free from plasticizers and stearates, which can cause long-term damage to collectibles. This means no sticky residues or yellowing over time.

How to use them for grading submissions

The clear material allows graders to inspect the card without removing it from the holder.
Frequently asked questions
Are these holders safe for valuable cards?
Yes. The PVC is archival-safe and free from plasticizers and stearates, which means it will not chemically interact with the card surface over time. The non-migrating material ensures long-term protection.
Can I use these for shipping cards?
Yes, they are designed for transport, especially for grading submissions. The semi-rigid structure prevents bending, and the snug fit keeps cards from sliding around.
What sizes of cards fit?
Standard-sized trading and sports cards up to 55pt thickness will fit. The internal pocket is 81 x 108 mm, which accommodates most modern cards. For thicker cards (e.g., 75pt), these are not suitable.
Do these holders have any markings or logos?
The holders are completely clear with no markings, so they won't obstruct the view of the card.
