IDTS-0803 Ultra-Miniature UHF On-Metal RFID PCB Tag 8 x 3 x 4.3 mm for Small Tools, Instruments & PCBs

The IDTS-0803 is an ultra-miniature UHF on-metal (anti-metal) RFID tag from IDentium, built on a rigid black PCB body measuring just 8 x 3 x 4.3 mm. It is sized for the assets that normally defeat RFID altogether — small metal parts, instruments and sub-assemblies where there is simply no room for a conventional on-metal tag. Despite the miniature rectangular bar format, it is an anti-metal design and delivers a read range of approx. 0.5 m on metal, with an operating temperature rating of -20 C to +150 C.

Applications

• Serialising bare PCBs, electronic modules and sub-assemblies through production and rework
• Tracking surgical, dental and laboratory instruments where the tag must sit on a slim metal shank
• Tool crib issue-and-return for small hand tools, drill chucks, inserts and cutter holders
• Identifying precision jigs, fixtures, gauges and calibration items on the shop floor
• IT asset audits covering small metal items — connectors, rack accessories, adapters and modules
• Marking small valves, fittings, couplings and probes in pharma, utilities and process plants
• MRO and railway workshop spares that are too small to carry a label or a full-size on-metal tag

Why Choose This Tag

• Genuinely miniature footprint. At 8 x 3 x 4.3 mm in a rectangular bar shape, it fits assets that larger on-metal tags cannot be placed on at all.
• Built for metal. An anti-metal design that reads at approx. 0.5 m on metal — the read distance is quoted on a metal surface, not in free air.
• Impinj Monza R6-P chip on ISO18000-6C. Works with standard ISO18000-6C readers and handheld terminals, with 128 bit EPC, 96 bit TID and 32 bit User memory for serialisation and factory-programmed unique identity.
• Wide -20 C to +150 C operating temperature rating. Suited to deployments that move between cold storage and hot process areas.
• Rugged PCB construction. A rigid black PCB body with two silver plated ring pads on the top face, supplied and supported in India by India RFID Store under the IDentium / IDTS brand.

Read range figures are typical and will vary with the reader and antenna used, transmit power, the mounting surface and the surrounding environment. We recommend a site trial with your own reader before large-volume rollout.
