HID 1324GBN22 Composite Prox Card Without Slot, Proximity II Format, 20 mil Thickness
When your access control deployment requires durable credentials that balance printability with physical resilience, composite construction delivers where PVC alone falls short. This HID proximity card uses a 20 mil composite structure—polyester laminate with PVC overlay—providing superior resistance to cracking and thermal stress while maintaining compatibility with standard direct-to-card printers. The Proximity II format operates at 125 kHz, integrating seamlessly with legacy HID readers already deployed across thousands of commercial facilities.
Key Features
- 20 mil composite construction: polyester core with PVC overlay for enhanced durability over standard PVC cards
- HID Proximity II 125 kHz technology for reliable read performance with existing HID infrastructure
- No slot design provides uninterrupted printable surface and eliminates common failure point from slot punch holes
- Standard CR80 credit card dimensions (3.375" x 2.125") for compatibility with badge holders and printers
- Composite structure resists warping, cracking, and delamination in high-temperature or high-flex environments
- Compatible with direct-to-card and retransfer printers for on-site credential personalization
- Passive credential design requires no batteries or maintenance after encoding
Composite credentials address a common integrator challenge: facilities that require printed photo badges but experience high card failure rates from environmental stress or daily wear. The 20 mil thickness provides structural rigidity that reduces breakage during printing and handling, while the polyester core maintains dimensional stability through temperature swings that would warp thinner PVC cards. For deployments where credentials live in outdoor badge holders or experience frequent flexing in pockets, this construction extends credential lifespan significantly compared to standard 30 mil PVC alternatives.
The slotless design preserves card strength and maximizes the printable area for photo badges. Proximity II format ensures backward compatibility with your existing HID reader infrastructure—no controller reprogramming required when replacing older credentials or scaling system capacity. These cards arrive unprogrammed, ready for facility code and ID number assignment through your standard HID encoding workflow.
