IDTS-1907 UHF On-Metal PCB RFID Tag 19 x 7 x 4 mm | Two-Hole Anti-Metal Tag for Tools, Jigs & Equipment

The IDTS-1907 is a compact on-metal (anti-metal) UHF RFID tag from IDentium, built on a PCB substrate in a slim 19 x 7 x 4 mm bar format with rounded ends. It is made for the assets that defeat ordinary labels and inlays: small metal tools, fixtures, fittings and equipment parts where there is barely a strip of flat surface to work with. Two large central through-holes and four small copper-ringed corner holes let the tag be fastened down permanently, so identity stays with the asset through daily handling and years of circulation on the shop floor.

Applications

• Tool cribs and hand-tool issue registers - spanners, torque wrenches, air tools and jigs that are drawn and returned every shift, where the 19 x 7 mm footprint fits on a shank or handle boss without fouling the grip.
• Jigs, fixtures, moulds and dies - fastened to a steel fixture body through the two central holes so each tool carries its own identity for setup verification and preventive maintenance scheduling.
• Valves, pipe fittings and small pressure fittings in utilities, oil and gas and process plants, where a narrow bar tag suits the flat of a body or a bracket better than a large plate tag.
• Electrical panel, switchgear and control-cabinet components - breakers, relays, busbar supports and cable-tray sections tagged individually for audit and inspection rounds.
• IT asset audits - server rails, network switches, rack accessories and metal-bodied equipment where a small on-metal tag keeps annual physical verification quick and accurate.
• Manufacturing WIP and returnable metal parts - assembly carriers, small housings, motor bodies and machined components tracked between stations on the line.
• Railway and workshop equipment inventories - small metal components, gauges and depot tooling that need a durable, mechanically fastened identity rather than an adhesive label.

Why Choose This Tag

• Built for metal, not adapted to it. This is an on-metal (anti-metal) design that gives approx. 2.5 m read on metal - the surface that normally detunes a standard UHF label is exactly where this tag is meant to sit.
• Small enough for the assets that matter. At 19 x 7 x 4 mm it goes where plate and hard tags cannot: tool shanks, fixture bodies, fittings and equipment brackets, without adding bulk that snags in handling.
• Mechanical mounting, not adhesive. Two large central through-holes of 2.3 mm at a 15 mm pitch, plus four small corner holes, allow the tag to be fastened down permanently so it stays with the asset for its full service life.
• Wide operating temperature range. Rated for -20 C to +150 C operation, giving you room to work across cold stores, general shop-floor conditions and hot equipment areas with a single part number.
• Standards-based and reader-agnostic. ISO18000-6C with 128-bit EPC and 96-bit TID means it works with the fixed readers, handhelds and middleware you already run, and the factory TID gives every tag a unique reference for audit trails.

Read range figures are typical values obtained on a metal surface and are indicative only. Actual performance varies with reader output power, antenna type and orientation, the mounting surface and the surrounding environment. We recommend a site trial with your own reader setup before large-scale deployment.

Frequently asked questions

Does the IDTS-1907 work on metal tools and fixtures?

Yes, the IDTS-1907 is an on-metal or anti-metal UHF tag built on a PCB substrate, so it keeps reading on assets that defeat ordinary labels and inlays. It is made for small metal tools, fixtures, fittings and equipment parts where there is barely a strip of flat surface to work with.

How is the IDTS-1907 fastened down?

The IDTS-1907 has two large central through-holes and four small copper-ringed corner holes, so it can be screwed, riveted or bolted permanently onto the asset. Mechanical fixing means the identity stays with the tool through daily handling and years of circulation on a busy shop floor.

What size is it and where does it fit?

The IDTS-1907 is a slim 19 x 7 x 4 mm bar with rounded ends, so it fits along the shank of a tool, the edge of a fixture or a small equipment part. The compact format is aimed at assets where a full-size metal asset plate or a large on-metal tag simply cannot be mounted.

What is the price and can I order it pre-encoded?

Pricing depends on the quantity and on any custom encoding or marking you need, so check the listed price or request a bulk quote. Identium is a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer, so bulk and OEM pricing, tag encoding, trial samples and pan-India shipping are all available on this tag.
