Printable UHF On-metal Label 6006-U8

The ID-6006-U8 is a 60×6mm ultra-slim UHF RFID on-metal label — the slimmest on-metal tag in Identium's range. At only 6mm wide, it is invisible on the edge of a laptop, below a server blade bezel, or along the border of a PCB panel. Despite its minimal profile, the Impinj Monza R6-P chip and 60mm antenna length deliver reads at up to 2 metres on metal surfaces, making it ideal for high-density IT environments where tags cannot obscure ventilation, indicator LEDs, or adjacent ports.Technical SpecificationsParameterValue ModelID-6006-U8 Dimensions60 × 6 mm (ultra-slim strip) ChipImpinj Monza R6-P (U8) SubstrateUltra-thin anti-metal foam + PET face Read range (on metal)1–2 m Frequency865–868 MHz (India) ProtocolEPC Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C AdhesiveMetal-grade high-tack acrylic Operating temp.-20°C to +70°CApplications The 60×6mm format is selected when no other on-metal label will fit.

Frequently asked questions

How slim is this on-metal RFID label and where does it fit?

The ID-6006-U8 UHF on-metal RFID label measures 60 by 6mm, making it the slimmest on-metal tag in the Identium range. At just 6mm wide it sits unobtrusively on a laptop edge, below a server blade bezel or along a PCB panel border without covering vents, LEDs or ports.

What is the read range of the ID-6006-U8 on metal?

The ID-6006-U8 UHF on-metal RFID label reads at 1 to 2 metres on metal surfaces. The 60mm antenna and Impinj Monza R6-P chip achieve this despite the ultra-slim 6mm profile, which suits high-density IT racks where tags must not obscure equipment.

Is this UHF on-metal label suitable for use in India?

Yes. The ID-6006-U8 operates at 865 to 868 MHz, covering India's WPC-approved 865 to 867 MHz UHF RFID band that is licence-free within notified power limits. It follows EPC Gen 2 and ISO 18000-6C, so it works with standard UHF readers deployed in India.

What is the price of ultra-slim on-metal RFID tags in India?

Pricing for ultra-slim on-metal RFID tags in India depends on order quantity and any custom printing or encoding, so refer to the listed price or request a bulk quotation. India RFID Store is a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer offering OEM volumes, samples and pan-India shipping.
