Industrial-grade UHF RFID anti-metal tag designed for gas cylinders and metal surfaces. Features black ABS housing with optimized thickness to create optimal distance between antenna and metal surface, ensuring stable reading on metal environments. IP65 waterproof rated, wide temperature range from -20°C to +120°C.
The ABS Gas Cylinder RFID UHF Tag is specifically designed for metal surface applications, particularly gas cylinders, industrial equipment, and asset tracking. Unlike standard RFID tags that experience signal detuning when attached to metal, this anti-metal tag achieves reliable read performance through ABS housing thickness design with optional foam layer to create optimal distance between the RFID antenna and the metal surface.
Features industrial-grade ABS housing with IP65 waterproof rating, suitable for harsh environments with wide operating temperature range from -20°C to +120°C. Standard chip is NXP UCODE 8, offering excellent read range for UHF RFID metal tagging applications. Available in black and orange color options.
Supports custom printing of UID, barcode, QR code, and serial numbers. Available in various adhesive options for different deployment needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this tag work on metal surfaces?
The ABS Gas Cylinder RFID Tag achieves reliable performance on metal surfaces through physical design — the ABS housing thickness and optional foam layer create optimal distance between the RFID antenna and the metal surface, preventing signal detuning that affects standard tags. This makes it ideal for gas cylinder tracking and other metal asset management.
What is the read range on metal?
With a fixed UHF RFID reader (9dBi antenna), read range can reach 3 meters or more. With a handheld reader (4dBi), stable reading is 30cm+. Actual range varies depending on metal surface type and mounting position.
Can I customize the size and chip?
Yes. We offer OEM/ODM services for UHF RFID metal tags. Size, chip, print content, housing color (black/orange), and adhesive can all be customized. Contact us for specific requirements.
What is the operating temperature range?
Operating temperature: -20°C to +120°C. Storage temperature: -40°C to +150°C. Suitable for extreme industrial environments.
What is the minimum order quantity?
We provide free samples for testing before bulk orders. MOQ is flexible — contact us to discuss your specific quantity needs for anti-metal RFID tag procurement.
