P3 offers many different sizes, coercivity & output levels of magnetic stripes. The standard in the industry for years used to be a low coercivity (300 oerstead) level magnetic stripe with a 100% output level.The problem with this stripe was that it was adversely affected by common household magnets or magnetic fields. The encoding (information on the magnetic stripe) could be moved and jumbled simply by passing it near a magnet or a stronger magnetic stripe on another card. This moving around of the information meant that the information on the stripe no longer could be read. This was commonly referred to as the stripe being de-magnatized. Though this term was inaccurate, it came to mean that the stripe no longer worked in the readers or terminals it for which it was designed.
High coercivity magnetic striping was invented to alleviate this problem. The new magnetic striped cards are a 2, 750 oerstead with 100% output and because it uses stronger magnetic particles in its make up, common household magnets or standard magnetic fields do not effect it.
P3 offers both types of magnetic stripes and the very high output, high coercivity magnetic stripes commonly used on 1/8 wide magnetic stripes. Sizes from 1/8 to 7/16 wide are kept in stock to facilitate quick deliveries. P3 produces mag stripes that are flush mounted to achieve maximum wear and usability in direct to card printers.
