Question
What is the thickest card stock available for die-cut products?
Answer
Die-cut products print best on heavier cover-weight stocks, because the added rigidity holds a cleaner, more precise cut edge. The thickest option generally tops out around a 32pt ultra-thick uncoated cover, which is among the heaviest card stocks used for die-cutting.
- Heavier cover stocks resist tearing and keep intricate shapes crisp.
- Thin text-weight paper is not ideal for detailed die-cuts because the edges can fray.
- The maximum thickness available depends on the specific die-cut product, since each item carries its own stock list.
| Stock weight | Where it fits |
|---|---|
| 14pt to 16pt cover | Standard die-cut cards and tags |
| 18pt to 24pt cover | Sturdier premium pieces |
| 32pt ultra-thick uncoated cover | Among the thickest available for die-cutting |
Always confirm the heaviest stock supported for the exact product you plan to order, as options can vary from one item to the next.
