Deck sleeve Ultra‑Pro 81126 transparent pack of 100 — archival, PVC‑free

Ultra‑Pro 81126 transparent deck sleeves provide clear, archival-safe protection for standard trading and collectible cards. Each pack contains 100 transparent sleeves made from non-PVC, acid-free polypropylene film that shields cards from dust, fingerprints and light surface wear while preserving visibility and tactile feel. These sleeves are compatible with standard size trading cards (2-1/2" x 3-1/2") and are suitable for storage, sorting, display and play where a thin, soft sleeve is preferred.

Advantages

The sleeves are made from archival-safe, acid-free polypropylene that does not contain PVC, reducing the risk of long-term chemical damage to card surfaces. Their clear, soft construction minimizes surface scratches and protects cards from dirt and natural oils from handling, while allowing full visibility of front and back artwork. The slim profile accommodates cards up to medium board thickness without adding bulk, making these sleeves practical for both storage and in-game use.

Suitable for

• Standard 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" trading cards for collectible card games
• Board game card components that require transparent protection
• Card sorting, display pages and binders where archival-safe protection is needed
• Gameplay use when a thin, unobtrusive sleeve is required

How to use

Slide each card gently into the sleeve from the open top, ensuring the card sits flush against the back of the sleeve and the edges are fully covered. For best results, avoid forcing thicker cards into a sleeve; if resistance is felt, use a sleeve designed for thicker boards. When sleeving multiple cards for storage, align sleeved cards in a binder, box or storage box to prevent bending. For play, keep sleeves clean and free of debris to maintain smooth shuffling and handling.

Usage recommendations

Store sleeved cards upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve card condition. For long-term archival storage, consider using these sleeves together with top loaders or binder pages designed for archival preservation. Regularly inspect sleeves for wear and replace any that show tearing or clouding to maintain optimal card protection.
