The ID-1142-U8 is an 11×42mm UHF RFID jewellery tag built on the Impinj Monza R6-P chip — the industry-standard chip for jewellery item-level tracking. The narrow 11mm width and 42mm length allows the tag to wrap around a ring, bracelet, or necklace cord while remaining invisible to the customer. Unlike HF-based jewellery tags, the ID-1142-U8 enables simultaneous bulk reads of 50–100 items in a tray, making stocktake in a jewellery showroom ten times faster than manual methods.

The ID-1142-U8 UHF RFID jewellery tag reads from 0.3 to 1.5 metres on a jewellery tray, depending on the reader used. It is built on the Impinj Monza R6-P chip and works at 865-868 MHz in India and 902-928 MHz globally, following EPC Gen 2 and ISO 18000-6C.
How many jewellery items can be counted at once with this RFID tag?
The ID-1142-U8 supports simultaneous bulk reads of 50 to 100 tagged items in a single tray, which makes showroom stocktake around ten times faster than manual counting. That bulk-read ability is the main reason Indian jewellers choose UHF tags over HF-based jewellery tags for daily inventory.
Will an 11 x 42 mm RFID tag fit on rings and chains?
Yes, the ID-1142-U8 measures 11 x 42 mm, so the narrow strip wraps around a ring, bracelet or necklace cord while staying out of the customer's view. It is supplied on PET with a permanent adhesive and also works on paper hang tags, foam inserts and soft pouches.
