Distinctive Translucent Design

This Essendant retractable ID card reel features a clear translucent casing that makes it easy to spot on a busy lanyard or belt loop. It is intended for office workers, students and event staff who need to display identification throughout the day. The reel comes in a pack of 12 so teams can be equipped in a single order. The simple design suits any workplace dress code.

Replaces Fixed Badge Holders

The retractable cord replaces static badge holders that force the wearer to unclip the card for every scan or swipe. The jump is worth it when building access, time clocks or cafeteria readers require frequent presentation of the credential. Users who only show ID at a reception desk once per visit will not see the same benefit. The mechanism keeps the card tethered while extending for the reader.

Simple Clip-On Installation

A spring-loaded belt and pocket clip slides onto waistbands, pockets or bag straps without tools. The clear badge holder snaps onto the reel end and accepts standard slotted ID cards. The most common issue is the clip loosening on thick fabric over time; a quick squeeze restores grip. Cards without a slot need a separate punch or adhesive badge holder, which are not included.

Questions about this item

How does the belt or pocket clip on the Essendant Translucent Retractable ID Card Reel 12 attach to clothing?

The integrated metal clip slides over a belt edge, waistband or pocket hem and springs shut to hold the reel firmly in place.

What is the correct way to extend the cord on the Essendant Translucent Retractable ID Card Reel 12 so it does not jam?

Pull the badge straight out from the reel body; letting the cord angle sideways can twist the spring and cause sticking.

When should the clear badge holder supplied with the Essendant Translucent Retractable ID Card Reel 12 be replaced?

Replace the holder once the plastic clouds, cracks or the card slides out too easily, typically after heavy daily use.
