Question
Is 24pt thick?
Answer
Yes, 24 pt is a thick stock. Words like thick and heavy are subjective, though, so here is a frame of reference: a credit card is 30 pt. That puts 24 pt just under credit-card thickness, which is well into the premium, rigid range for cards.
| Stock | Points | Feel |
|---|---|---|
| Standard card | 14 to 16 pt | Everyday, flexible |
| 24 pt | 24 pt | Thick, sturdy |
| Credit card | 30 pt | Rigid reference point |
- At 24 pt (0.024 in), the card holds its shape and resists bending far better than a standard 14 pt.
- A solid choice when you want a substantial, high-end feel without going all the way to ultra-thick.
