Product Overview
RFID Tamper Evident Cable Seals combine a rugged ABS housing with a stainless steel wire to deliver reliable tamper-evident identification for logistics, container management, and asset tracking. Built on the NXP UCODE 9 chip and fully compliant with ISO 18000-6C / EPC Gen2, these seals provide long-range readability up to 10 meters* while maintaining a physical tamper-proof mechanism — once the steel wire is cut or damaged, the seal cannot be re-closed, providing immediate visual evidence of unauthorized access.
Available in 13 housing configurations ranging from compact square seals (36×25mm) to extended reverse-insert seals (100×28mm), RFIDSU's UHF cable seal tags are engineered for demanding supply chain environments including shipping containers, utility meters, pharmaceutical distribution, and high-security asset logistics. Standard steel wire length is 280mm with fully customizable options available.
Key Features
Tamper-Evident Steel Wire
One-time-use stainless steel wire seal — once broken, it cannot be re-sealed, providing immediate physical evidence of tampering. Ideal for UHF RFID tamper-evident logistics tracking.
NXP UCODE 9 Chip
Powered by the industry-leading NXP UCODE 9 chip with 96-bit EPC memory and enhanced anti-collision performance for dense RFID reader environments.
Long Read Range up to 10 m
UHF 860–960MHz frequency enables hands-free, long-distance scanning — no line-of-sight required. Perfect for automated gate control and high-throughput container scanning.
Rugged ABS Housing
Industrial-grade ABS plastic housing with IP67/IP68 protection — dust-tight, waterproof, and impact-resistant. Withstands harsh outdoor and warehouse environments.
Wide Temperature Range
Operates reliably from -40°C to +85°C, meeting the requirements of cold-chain logistics, outdoor container yards, and industrial storage applications.
Laser Serial Numbering
Permanent laser-engraved sequential numbers on the housing for visual cross-reference alongside RFID scanning — tamper-proof, smudge-proof, and ink-free.

Applications
Container & Cargo Sealing
Deploy UHF RFID cable seals on shipping containers and truck trailers for automated tamper detection at port gates and warehouse entry points.
Utility Meter Management
Applied to electric, water, and gas meters for one-way sealing with RFID traceability — ideal for utility companies managing large meter estates across dispersed locations.
Pharmaceutical Supply Chain
Ensure cold-chain integrity and anti-counterfeiting compliance for pharmaceutical goods, vaccines, and regulated products during international distribution.
Customs & Border Inspection
Used as customs seals on bonded cargo, enabling fast automated verification at border checkpoints without physical inspection of every unit.
High-Value Asset Tracking
Secure high-value industrial assets, IT equipment, and tooling with one-time RFID seals that provide both electronic and visual evidence of unauthorized access.
Warehouse & Pallet Management
Attach to pallet cages, roll cages, or bulk storage containers to track inventory movement through DCs and warehouses with hands-free UHF scanning.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes RFID tamper-evident cable seals tamper-proof?
The stainless steel wire passes through a one-way locking mechanism inside the ABS housing. Once inserted and locked, the wire cannot be removed without physically cutting or destroying it. This provides immediate, irreversible visual evidence of any unauthorized access — alongside the RFID electronic record of when the seal was last read.
What is the read range of these UHF RFID cable seal tags?
Under standard conditions using a UHF RFID reader, the read range reaches up to 10 meters. In optimized gate or tunnel reader setups (such as container yard gates or warehouse dock doors), effective read distances can vary depending on antenna gain, reader power output, and the specific inlay embedded in the seal housing. Actual performance should be tested with your specific reader and antenna setup.
Can these tags operate in extreme outdoor environments?
Yes. The ABS housing and stainless steel wire construction provide IP67/IP68 waterproof protection. The operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C covers cold-chain logistics, outdoor container yards, and industrial storage environments without performance degradation.
Can I get custom pre-encoded seal tags with my serial numbers?
Yes. RFIDSU offers factory pre-encoding services. We can pre-encode your serial numbers or EPC codes into the EPC memory of each tag before shipment, with matching laser-engraved numbers on the housing for dual-verification at the point of inspection.
What are the minimum order quantities and lead times?
Standard MOQ for UHF RFID tamper-evident cable seals is 500 pcs with standard lead time of 7–15 business days. For OEM/ODM custom projects (custom dimensions, chip type, or laser marking), MOQ and lead time vary — please contact
