What is this product?
This is a purpose-built industrial NFC asset tag engineered for uncompromising performance in harsh environments. If you’re searching for a rugged, long-lasting solution to track tools, machinery, or infrastructure in factories, construction sites, or outdoor yards, this tag combines a NXP ICODE SLI chip with a waterproof (IP68) PPS shell and 3M VHB adhesive—designed to stay bonded and functional where standard tags fail. At just 20mm in diameter (about the size of a penny), it’s small enough to tag even compact assets without obstructing operations.
Key Features & Benefits
- 3M VHB Adhesive – Built for Extreme Conditions: Industrial-grade acrylic foam tape bonds to metal, plastic, concrete, and more, withstanding vibration, temperature swings (-40°C to 150°C), and moisture. No more tags peeling off high-vibration equipment or cracking in heat.
- IP68 Waterproof & Chemically Resistant: A durable PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) shell protects the NFC chip from dust, water immersion (1m for 30 minutes), and chemical exposure—ideal for wet factories, outdoor machinery, or chemical processing plants.
- NXP ICODE SLI Chip – Works with Your Existing Tools: NFC Forum Type 5 compliant, this chip supports 512-bit EEPROM for storing asset data (serial numbers, maintenance logs). It pairs seamlessly with standard NFC readers, mobile devices (Android/iOS), and fixed scanners—no need to replace your current system.
- Easy-Pull Release Liner – Install in Seconds: Mess-free, peel-and-apply design reduces downtime. Operators can tag assets quickly, keeping workflows moving without sticky residue or complicated tools.
- Bulk Pricing – Scalable for Large Projects: Discounts start at 10 units, with prices as low as $4.60/unit for 5,000+ orders. Affordable even for large-scale inventory or equipment tracking initiatives.
Real-world Applications
Trusted by industrial maintenance managers, logistics coordinators, and manufacturing supervisors, this tag solves critical tracking needs across industries:
- Manufacturing: Track jigs, tools, and machinery for preventive maintenance scheduling—avoid unplanned downtime.
- Logistics: Identify pallets, containers, and reusable assets in warehouses or outdoor yards for real-time inventory visibility.
- Construction: Tag generators, power tools, and equipment to prevent theft and streamline checkout/return processes.
- Utilities: Monitor valves, meters, and outdoor infrastructure in wet, dusty, or chemically exposed environments—ensure data integrity over time.
