Ceramic RFID UHF Anti Metal Tag
- Compact ceramic tags mount flush into metal parts and assemblies.
- Deliver reliable UHF performance in full-metal environments.
- Track small, high-value tools and medical or industrial assets with precision.
- Built with IP68-rated ceramic housing to endure heat, chemicals, and heavy use.
Standard RFID tags fail when attached to or embedded in metal. Our Ceramic On-Metal UHF Tags deliver the definitive solution, specifically engineered for permanent integration into metal parts and assemblies.
These tags maintain strong and stable read performance even when fully enclosed by metal for using in industrial and medical asset tracking. Built from high-density ceramic with a durable black coating, each tag withstands high temperatures, harsh chemicals, and repeated sterilization cycles. The IP68-rated enclosure ensures full resistance to water and dust ingress.
Ceramic On-Metal UHF Tags Key Features
- Embeddable Design: Press-fit or epoxy-installed directly into metal surfaces for a secure, permanent installation.
- Optimized On-Metal Performance: Tuned antenna design ensures consistent read/write range in metal-rich environments.
- Robust Ceramic Housing: Delivers superior protection against impact, vibration, and corrosive agents.
- IP68 Certified: Waterproof, dustproof, and suitable for submersion or outdoor conditions.
- Versatile Form Factors: Available in micro sizes down to 4×4 mm to fit ultra-compact assets.
- Precision Asset Tracking: Ideal for surgical tools, medical devices, IT hardware, and small industrial equipment.

What is the primary use of ceramic RFID tags?
They provide permanent identification for metal assets by embedding into pre-drilled holes or indentations in metal parts, tools, and equipment.
How can the tag be read when embedded in metal?
Special antenna design combined with ceramic housing enables reliable UHF read performance, even when fully surrounded by metal.
What are common applications?
Used for tracking small, high-value, rugged assets such as surgical instruments, medical devices, IT components, manufacturing tools, and molds.
What is the read range?
Read range varies by size: micro tags (~6x2mm) read up to 30cm; larger tags (~30x30mm) can reach up to 8 meters with a fixed reader.
Can these tags be surface mounted?
Yes. They are primarily designed for embedding but can be supplied with high-strength adhesive backing for surface mounting.
What is the smallest tag size you offer?
Sizes include micro dimensions such as 4x4x3 mm and 6x2x2 mm, suitable for very small and precise assets.
What kind of RFID reader is required?
Standard UHF RFID readers compliant with EPC Class 1 Gen 2 (ISO 18000-6C) protocol support these tags.
Do you offer wholesale pricing or free samples?
Yes, we provide wholesale pricing on bulk orders and offer samples for testing. Please contact our sales team for details.
