What is a PCB anti metal RFID tag?

A PCB anti metal RFID tag is an RFID tag built on a printed circuit board substrate and designed to work when mounted on metal surfaces. This product uses FR-4 material and supports industrial on-metal RFID tracking applications.

Can this tag be used directly on metal?

Yes. The tag is optimized for use on metal surfaces and is designed to deliver consistent read performance when mounted directly on metal assets.

What RFID reader is required?

For UHF operation, the tag is compatible with EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C RFID readers. Most standard UHF fixed readers and handheld readers that support this protocol can be used.

What read range can I expect?

The confirmed on-metal read range is up to 8 meters. Actual performance depends on tag size, chip, reader, antenna, environment, and mounting position.

Why choose a PCB RFID tag instead of a flexible RFID label?

PCB tags provide a rigid FR-4 structure that resists bending, pressure, and impact. This helps protect the antenna and supports stable performance in long-term industrial use.

How can the tag be mounted?

Confirmed mounting methods include industrial adhesive backing, screws, and rivets. The product also supports hole-free, single-hole, and two-hole configurations depending on the selected tag model.

Can the tag be customized with logos or serial numbers?

Yes. Confirmed personalization options include laser engraving for serial numbers, UID, QR codes, or simple logos. Screen printing on a protective overlay is available for logos or text requiring color.

Are samples available?

Samples are available but are not free. The sample fee can be deducted from the cost of the first order.
