UHF EPC Gen 2 Mount On Metal RFID Tags
Mount-on-Metal UHF RFID Tags – Durable EPC Gen 2 Tracking for Industrial Use
Standard RFID tags often fail when applied directly to metal, causing signal interference and unreliable reads. Our UHF EPC Gen 2 On Metal RFID Tags are engineered specifically for use on metal surfaces, delivering accurate, long-range identification in even the harshest industrial environments.
Whether you’re tracking tools, equipment, shipping containers, or IT assets, these tags offer high durability, waterproof protection, and stable UHF performance — making them ideal for manufacturing, logistics, construction, and energy sectors.
What Are Mount on Metal RFID Tags?
Mount-on metal RFID tags are a specialized type of UHF RFID tag that can be applied directly to metallic surfaces without signal degradation. Unlike standard inlays, these tags feature insulating layers and antenna designs that allow them to function efficiently when mounted to metal.
- Frequency: 860–960 MHz (UHF)
- Protocol: EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C
- Mounting: Adhesive, screw, rivet, zip tie, or magnetic backing
- Read Range: Up to 10 meters depending on setup.
