About the Identium UHF RFID PCB Tag 2006-20

The Identium UHF RFID PCB Tag 2006-20 is the bonded member of this family: a 20×6×2 mm on-metal PCB tag supplied without a mounting aperture, so it is fixed with adhesive or epoxy rather than a fastener. That matters on assets you are not allowed to drill — calibrated instruments, sealed housings, pressure parts and thin sheet metal. The H9 chip reads up to 80 cm from a metal surface, which suits handheld and short-range fixed reading at a bench, an issue counter or an instrument store. This compact H9 UHF PCB tag is made in India by Identium and operates on the 865-868 MHz Indian band.

Key specifications

Best-fit applications

• Calibrated instruments and gauges that must not be drilled or modified
• Sealed enclosures, junction boxes and weatherproof housings in the field
• Thin sheet-metal panels and covers too light for a screw or rivet
• Laptops, docking stations and small IT assets in an office fixed-asset register
• Test and measurement equipment issued from a laboratory store
• Small returnable metal fixtures cycled between line, stores and vendor

Mounting, encoding and reading notes

With no aperture, surface preparation does all the work: solvent-degrease the metal, take off loose paint or oxide, then set the tag in a two-part structural adhesive — or an industrial acrylic foam tape indoors — and let it cure fully before the asset goes back into service. Press the whole base down so no corner lifts, since an air gap shortens an already short read. Encode the EPC before bonding, because a tag removed after curing will usually be destroyed. Read it face-on with a handheld held close, or at a fixed bench reader.

Why buy from Identium

Identium Tech Solutions builds RFID hardware in India and has done so since 2010. The 2006-20 tag covers India's 865-868 MHz band and is ETSI-compatible for European, UK and GCC export. Expect OEM supply, custom EPC encoding and serialisation, and samples so you can test adhesion on your own assets first.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Identium 2006-20 RFID tag read on metal?

Yes, the IDTS-2006-20 is a 20 × 6 × 2 mm on-metal UHF RFID PCB tag made to be mounted directly on metal tools and assets. Standard paper or label tags do not read reliably on metal, so on-metal PCB tags are used for tool and equipment tracking in India.

What is the read range of this 20 mm UHF RFID PCB tag?

The IDTS-2006-20 UHF RFID PCB tag is listed with a read range of up to 80 cm. It carries an H9 chip and follows EPC Class 1 Gen2 / ISO 18000-6C at 860-960 MHz, which covers the 865-868 MHz UHF band notified by WPC in India. Range varies with reader and antenna.

What is the price of the IDTS-2006-20 on-metal tag in India?

Price depends on quantity and encoding, so please see the listed price for this on-metal UHF RFID PCB tag or request a bulk quotation. India RFID Store, run by Identium, is a BIS and WPC certified Indian RFID manufacturer offering OEM and volume pricing with pan-India shipping.

Where is this on-metal RFID tag typically used?

The IDTS-2006-20 on-metal UHF RFID PCB tag is used for tool tracking, on-metal asset tracking and general asset management. Its compact 20 × 6 mm body suits hand tools, moulds, fixtures and small metal equipment in Indian manufacturing and maintenance operations.
