Card Thickness best practices

Card Thickness best practices
Does anyone have a reference on the appropriate protective cases to buy based on the thickness of a card? So, for regular cards you would use 35 point cases, etc. I'm very curious about the best size for Bowman Chrome cards.

Thanks for any advice,

Law

I have used this as a refference for card sizes:

1 Regular Card = 20 Point - Use All Standard or Regular Card Holders

3 Regular Cards = 55 Point - Use 55 Point Holders (Also called Action Packed Size or Thick)

4-5 Regular Cards = 70-75 Point - Use 75 Point Holders or Extra Thick Holders

6-8 Regular Cards = 120-130 Point - Use 130 Point Holders (Commonly called Memorabilia Size or Real Thick or 3.5 mm)

9-12 Regular Cards = 180 Point - Use 180 Point Holders (Also called Super Thick)
