UHF RFID Anti Metal Tag Strip Qkansiw EPC GEN2 3.7×0.9″ 12m (10 pcs)

Description

Product Overview

The Qkansiw UHF RFID anti‑metal tag strip is engineered for demanding industrial environments where metal interference traditionally hampers radio frequency performance. At its core lies the IMPINJ U8 chip, a high‑performance UHF transponder that operates across the 860‑960 MHz band, ensuring robust communication with EPC GEN2‑compatible readers. The tag’s exterior combines a thin aluminum‑foil layer with a PET backing, creating a waterproof, wear‑resistant shell that survives the rigors of warehouse floors, factory machinery, and outdoor patrol routes. Each strip measures 3.7 × 0.9 inches, providing a low‑profile footprint that can be affixed to a wide variety of assets, from IT equipment chassis to automotive components. The adhesive backing is pressure‑sensitive, allowing instant placement without the need for additional fasteners or tools. With an advertised effective read radius of up to 12 meters, the tag delivers rapid, accurate identification even when mounted on metal surfaces that would normally attenuate RF signals.

Beyond its technical specifications, the tag is designed for scalability. Packaged in sets of ten, the strips are ready for bulk deployment in large‑scale inventory projects, enabling organizations to tag pallets, shelving units, and individual parts with minimal effort. The product complies fully with ISO 18000‑6C and EPC CLASS 1 GEN2 standards, guaranteeing interoperability with a broad ecosystem of RFID readers, middleware platforms, and asset‑management software. This compliance also future‑proofs the solution, as newer reader models continue to support the same protocol suite. The combination of a high‑gain chip, metal‑friendly design, and durable materials makes the Qkansiw tag strip a versatile choice for any operation that requires reliable, long‑range RFID tracking on metal‑rich assets.

Usage

In a modern warehouse, inventory accuracy hinges on the ability to locate items quickly and without manual scanning. The Qkansiw anti‑metal tag strip excels in this scenario by attaching directly to metal pallets, shelving brackets, and container doors. When a handheld or fixed RFID reader sweeps the aisle, the tag’s 12 meter read range captures the unique EPC identifier, instantly updating stock levels in the warehouse management system. This reduces the time spent on manual counts and minimizes human error. In manufacturing plants, the tags can be placed on machinery housings, tool cabinets, and even on the metal frames of production lines. The waterproof PET shell protects the chip from coolant splashes, dust, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring consistent performance throughout the production cycle.

For IT asset management, the tags are ideal for labeling server racks, network switches, and storage enclosures. The adhesive backing adheres securely to the metal chassis without leaving residue when removed, facilitating asset relocation or de‑commissioning. In field patrol applications, security personnel can affix the tags to metal doors, gates, and vehicle panels, enabling rapid verification of authorized equipment via handheld readers. The tags’ durability also makes them suitable for outdoor installations such as metal utility poles or outdoor cabinets, where exposure to rain and sunlight is common. Across all these use cases, the tag’s compliance with EPC GEN2 ensures that data is transmitted reliably, supporting real‑time visibility and analytics for supply‑chain optimization.

FAQ

Can the tag be used on non‑metal surfaces?

Yes, the tag works on both metal and non‑metal surfaces. While its design specifically mitigates metal interference, the waterproof PET shell also protects the chip when applied to plastic, wood, or cardboard, making it a versatile choice for mixed‑material inventories.

What RFID readers are compatible with this tag?

The tag complies with ISO 18000‑6C and EPC CLASS 1 GEN2 standards, so it is compatible with any UHF RFID reader that supports those protocols, including most fixed portal readers, handheld scanners, and mobile RFID devices on the market today.

How does the adhesive backing perform over time?

The adhesive is formulated to maintain a strong bond for up to 12 months under normal indoor conditions. In high‑temperature or high‑humidity environments, we recommend periodic inspection to ensure the tag remains securely attached.

Is there a warranty or return policy?

Qkansiw offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. If a tag fails due to a defect, we will replace it at no cost. Returns for other reasons are accepted within 30 days of purchase, subject to our standard return policy.

Can the tags be programmed with custom EPC codes?

Yes, the tags can be programmed using standard RFID encoding tools. Our technical support team can provide step‑by‑step instructions for writing custom EPC identifiers to match your asset‑management system.
