The sleeves are thin enough to slide easily into top loaders, binders, or semi-rigid holders without adding bulk, yet thick enough to resist tearing during handling. This makes them a practical choice for collectors who want a reliable inner sleeve for grading submissions or daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use These Sleeves\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese sleeves are designed for fast \"pack to sleeve\" protection. Simply slide the card in from the open end. They work as a single layer for binder pages or as the inner sleeve inside rigid card holders. Vault X recommends them for use with their own binders, rigid holders, and semi-rigid card holders. Note: these sleeves are not suitable for cards thicker than 35pt, such as thick relics or coins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCollector's Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these sleeves suitable for standard Pokémon or Magic: The Gathering cards?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, standard trading cards like Pokémon, Magic, and Yu-Gi-Oh! measure roughly 63mm x 88mm, which fits within the sleeve’s capacity. The 35pt thickness limit covers most standard cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use these sleeves for grading submissions to PSA, BGS, or CGC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. These soft sleeves are intended to be used as an inner layer during grading submission. They protect the card from dust and fingerprints while being thin enough to fit inside the grading card holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does “up to 35pt” mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCard thickness is measured in points (pt). 35pt equals about 0.35mm. Most standard trading cards are around 20pt to 30pt, so these sleeves fit ordinary cards. Thicker cards (like some vintage sports cards or premium inserts) may not slide in easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these sleeves archival safe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The polypropylene is acid-free and PVC-free, which means it won’t release harmful chemicals that could damage your cards over time. The material is also non-migrating, so the sleeves won’t stick to or stain your cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility with Storage Gear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese sleeves pair well with many Vault X products, including all binders, rigid card holders, and semi-rigid card holders. They also fit standard top loaders from other brands. The clear material lets you see the card’s front and back without removing it from the sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vault X","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58075509752111,"sku":null,"price":22.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/4478\/7503\/files\/vault-x-soft-penny-sleeves-400-pack-clear-40-micron-standard-trading-card-protectors-1.jpg?v=1781493244","url":"https:\/\/toysforkid.co.uk\/products\/vault-x-soft-penny-sleeves-400-pack-clear-40-micron-standard-trading-card-protectors","provider":"Toys For Kid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
