About the Identium UHF RFID PCB Tag P1005-20

A screw-mountable rectangle with real range, the P1005-20 PCB tag India manufacturers use on production equipment measures 10x5x2 mm, carries an M4QT chip and includes a 2 mm aperture. It is rated up to 60 cm on metal, so a technician walking a line can pick up a tool holder or a fixture without stopping at every station. The rectangular body sits neatly along a machined edge or a terminal box lip, and the mounting hole means it stays there through coolant, vibration and years of shift work in an Indian plant.

Key specifications

Best-fit applications

• Tool holders, collets and boring bars in a CNC machining cell
• Jigs and fixtures bolted to machine beds and welding tables
• Test and measurement instruments on a calibration schedule
• Valves, actuators and motor terminal boxes on a maintenance route
• WIP carriers and pallets moving between production stations
• Spare part kits held in steel racks in a maintenance store

Mounting, encoding and reading notes

Use the 2 mm aperture with an M2 screw or rivet wherever the asset vibrates or is washed down, adding a soft washer under the head so the fastener does not stress the board; epoxy is the fallback where drilling is not permitted. Mount the tag on a flat face rather than across a step, and keep its long axis consistent across the fleet so read behaviour stays predictable. Write each EPC during commissioning and check every fixture at the real scan distance rather than assuming the full 60 cm.

We quote bulk and OEM volumes, encode to your EPC scheme and send samples for evaluation. Browse more UHF RFID tags or see how plants deploy them in our RFID for manufacturing overview.

Frequently asked questions

How is the Identium P1005-20 RFID PCB tag fixed to an asset?

The P1005-20 UHF RFID PCB tag has a 2 mm mounting aperture, so it can be screwed or riveted to a metal asset, and industrial adhesive can be used where drilling is not allowed. The 10 by 5 by 2 mm size suits small tools and instruments.

What is the read range of this 10 mm on-metal UHF tag?

The Identium P1005-20 UHF RFID PCB tag reads up to 60 cm on metal. The distance achieved depends on reader output power, antenna gain and the mounting surface. It uses the M4QT chip and the EPC Class 1 Gen2 / ISO 18000-6C protocol over 860 to 960 MHz.

Is this UHF RFID tag approved for use in India?

Yes. The P1005-20 on-metal UHF RFID PCB tag covers 860 to 960 MHz, which includes India's 865 to 868 MHz band approved by WPC and licence-free within notified power limits. It is supplied by India RFID Store, a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer.

Are bulk and OEM prices available for these PCB tags?

Yes, the P1005-20 UHF RFID PCB tag is available with bulk and OEM pricing, custom encoding and samples for testing. The unit price depends on quantity, so check the listed price on this page or request a bulk quote. India RFID Store ships pan-India.
