Vulcan RFID Custom Universal Hard Tag

An RFID tag that truly lives up to its name. The Vulcan RFID Custom Universal RFID Hard Tag features surface independent tags with a patented inlay design used to obtain excellent read ranges regardless of the surface – metal, plastic, even wood. Along with the Vulcan RFID Custom Universal RFID Asset Tag, these two products make up a revolutionary product line that allows you to use only one RFID tag for your asset tracking application. The Universal RFID Hard Tag features impact-resistant housing combined with an ultrasonically welded seal that protects the subsurface printed label and RFID inlay from harsh environments including harmful UV rays. This durable product also withstands heavy impact and will read after resurfacing from submersion in over 20’ of water. The housing comes standard with two holes for mechanical fasteners and permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive for a second option to affix the tag. Unlike other RFID hard tags on the market, the Universal RFID Hard Tag's clear housing allows customers to see the customized label inside. Our four-color processing capabilities allow you to promote your company with a label that shows off your company name or logo.

Specialty RFID labels take advantage of sub-surface printing wherein the printed media has a protective covering. In order to remove the copy from a label, one would have to destroy the label itself.

Note:  Due to market demands, this product is transitioning away from the Alien Higgs 3 IC to the NXP UCODE 8 IC. Sample stock may still contain the Alien Higgs 3 while re-orders and higher volumes will contain the NXP UCODE 8 chip. Additional ICs are available upon request. Please contact us for more details.
