With a little help of Pure Metal Cards, we can create a metal card that will make you unforgettable! Choosing the type of metal, card finish and card thickness are as important as the actual card design itself. Handing out metal business cards is a conversation starter. Don’t let your card let you down. Pure Metal Cards offer a range of samples to assist you to choose your ideal metal card.
Handing out a business card is often the very first impression someone will get of you or your business, so you need to get it right.

To help you we offer a selection of sample cards which are designed to show the following details:
- choice of metal

Our metal sampler cards are available in:
- stainless steel
- matt black stainless steel

We have a range of metal card thicknesses available to meet your needs. Our standard metal card thickness is 0.3mm (0.012″). We offer the widest range of card thicknesses from 0.3mm to credit card thickness 0.8mm as shown below:
We also offer a range of thicker cards that are more suitable for unique cards such as a bottle opener, launch event invitation card or for a custom-designed engineered design item. We are able to offer all our metal card finishes in stainless steel, brass (gold), and copper in these card thicknesses.
Our metal business cards and metal membership cards can be made into any size you require. The standard metal card sizes are:
- 85mm x 54mm (3.3” x 2.2”) – credit card size
- 89mm × 51mm (3.5” x 2.0”) - USA and Canada sized
Our 0.3mm/0.012″ card thickness is the recommended metal card thickness to use for business cards. It is distinctive and unique, yet light. If you choose a thicker card please bear in mind the additional weight you will endure to carry these cards around with you. Cards of 0.5mm (0.020″) or thicker are quite heavy and bulky, especially if you have ten or more in your wallet or purse. These are more suitable for metal member cards. Card weights are shown below:-
- 0.3mm – 10.8 grams/0.38 ounces
- 0.4mm – 11.9 grams/0.42 ounces
- 0.5mm – 17.2 grams/0/61 ounces
- 0.6mm – 17.7 grams/0.62 ounces
- 0.8mm – 1.03 grams/0.94 ounces
Please note that weights are approximate as card design and cut thru elements can change the actual weight of the metal card.
To help you choose your metal card please visit our Request Samples page for a sampler card pack. We only use genuine metals, not plated steel. At Pure Metal Cards we produce our own sample designs for you to review. We do not use or share your card designs to send as samples to others. Please allow 3-5 business days for these to reach you. Our metal business cards are available in a range of metals and card thicknesses from a thin 0.3mm/0.012″ to credit card thickness 0.8mm/0.03″. We can also create thicker cards if required. Thicker cards are naturally heavier, something to consider when you’re carrying many for an event or a function! Cards can be printed on both sides at no extra cost. Our metal card sample designs are updated regularly so may be different from those shown on our website. Whatever card you require, Pure Metal Cards can create a metal card you will be proud to hand out.
