The 13x7mm Mini FR-4 UHF RFID On-Metal Tag is an ultra-compact industrial RFID tag designed for identification and tracking of small metal assets where mounting space is extremely limited. Its miniature 13x7mm footprint and rigid FR-4 fiberglass construction make it suitable for tools, IT assets, electronic equipment, metal components, instruments, compact machinery parts, and other metallic items that cannot accommodate larger RFID tags.
Operating in the 860-960MHz UHF band under EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO/IEC 18000-6C, the tag uses an Impinj M830 RFID chip for serialized asset identification and compatible UHF RFID workflows. Its miniature on-metal antenna structure is specifically designed for direct installation on metallic surfaces, where conventional UHF labels may experience severe RF detuning.
Actual read performance depends on reader output power, antenna gain and polarization, tag orientation, mounting position, metal surface dimensions, and the surrounding environment. Read distances of up to approximately 2 meters may be achievable on suitable metal surfaces with an appropriate reader setup. Because this model prioritizes minimum tag size, it should be selected primarily where installation space is more important than maximum read-range margin. Custom services include high-temperature industrial adhesive backing, laser-engraved UID or serial numbers, and EPC encoding.
