IDTS-5213-LED UHF On-Metal PCB RFID Tag 52 x 13 mm with LED Read Indicator for Tool and Asset Tracking

The IDTS-5213-LED from IDentium is a UHF on-metal (anti-metal) RFID tag built on a slim PCB bar measuring 52 x 13 x 2.5 mm, with a screw hole at each end and a built-in LED indicator that lights up when the tag is read. That visible confirmation is what sets this tag apart from a plain on-metal marker: the operator does not have to look at a screen to know the tag has been picked up by the reader. Supplied by India RFID Store for teams tagging tools, panels, fixtures and IT hardware where the asset itself is metal.

Key Specifications

• SKU: IDTS-5213-LED
• Product type: UHF on-metal (anti-metal) RFID tag
• Category: PCB and Ceramic Tags
• Frequency: 860-960 MHz (global UHF band); India operates in the 865-867 MHz de-licensed band
• Air interface protocol: ISO18000-6C
• Chip: KX2005X-BL
• Memory: EPC 96-240 bits, TID 96 bits, User 1312 bits
• Read range: approx. 4 m on metal; the built-in LED indication is visible from approx. 2 m, so the LED figure is a visual-confirmation distance rather than a data-read figure
• LED indicator: built-in LED that lights up on read; black LED dome, green light
• Material: PCB
• Substrate class: PCB
• Dimensions: 52 mm length x 13 mm width x 2.5 mm overall thickness (at the highest point)
• Board thickness: 1.6 mm
• Mounting: two screw mounting holes, one at each end
• Hole diameter: 4 mm
• Hole pitch: 41.5 mm centre-to-centre
• Shape: rectangular bar with rounded ends and two mounting holes
• Colour: light blue PCB with black LED dome (green light)
• Operating temperature: -20 C to +150 C
• Anti-metal: yes, intended for mounting on metal surfaces

Applications

• Tool cribs and hand-tool tracking: the 52 x 13 mm bar suits spanners, torque tools, drill bodies and tool trays, and the LED gives the storekeeper a visible cue at issue and return.
• IT asset audits: switches, servers, patch panels, rack rails and network cabinets, where a screw-fixed tag survives repeated handling better than a label.
• Utilities and electrical infrastructure: metering panels, control cabinets, switchgear doors and busbar enclosures on inspection rounds.
• Manufacturing jigs, fixtures, moulds and dies: assets that pass through hot process areas within the -20 C to +150 C window.
• Gas cylinder and valve fleets: cylinder collars, valve guards, pipe fittings and manifold assemblies where a narrow bar fits the available flat.
• Railway depots and maintenance workshops: track tools, signalling enclosures and depot equipment registers.
• Pharma and process plant equipment logs: stainless trolleys, vessels, frames and machine guards on cleaning and calibration schedules.

Why Choose This Tag

• Read confirmation you can see. The built-in LED lights up on read and is visible from approx. 2 m, which helps in aisle scanning and audit work where the operator is away from the screen.
• Made for metal. It is an on-metal (anti-metal) design that reads at approx. 4 m on metal, so it goes directly onto the asset instead of onto a separate carrier.
• Bolt it down and forget it. Two 4 mm screw holes at a 41.5 mm centre-to-centre pitch give a mechanical fix at both ends of the bar.
• Wide working temperature. Rated -20 C to +150 C, which covers process, workshop and outdoor-ambient Indian conditions.
• Standards-based data. ISO18000-6C with EPC 96-240 bits, TID 96 bits and 1312 bits of user memory, so asset IDs and on-tag records can both be carried.

Read range figures are typical values. Actual performance varies with the reader, antenna, RF power settings, the mounting surface and the surrounding environment. We recommend a trial on your own assets before bulk deployment.
