ABS RFID tags are the workhorses of fixed-asset programs: an injection-molded shell around a tuned on-metal inlay, tough enough for racking, machinery, cabinets and outdoor equipment. Unlike an adhesive label, the housing absorbs knocks, moisture and grime while the antenna keeps radiating — and the same tag performs whether it is fixed to metal, wood, plastic or a painted wall.
How to choose
Start with read range. The 85 × 20 mm format in this family reads up to 6 m on metal from a fixed reader in the US 902–928 MHz band, which comfortably covers gate and corridor scanning. Then consider mounting: at 11.5 mm thick, the shell accepts screws or industrial adhesive, so match the fixing method to whether the asset may be drilled. Memory is the third factor — 128 bits of EPC plus 512 bits of user storage under ISO/IEC 18000-6C / EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 let maintenance codes travel on the tag itself. The construction pairs an aluminum-on-PET antenna with the ABS face, a combination chosen for wide temperature and humidity tolerance.
