Product Overview
These compact UHF RFID inlays are engineered for space-constrained applications where standard-sized tags won't fit. Ranging from 5.5mm to 15mm diameter, these small inlays support popular chips like Alien HEC, NXP UCode 9, and Impinj M4E — delivering reliable UHF RFID performance despite their miniature footprint.
Available as dry inlay (PET base) for integration into your own labels, or wet inlay (with adhesive backing) for direct application. Ideal for retail inventory management, pharmaceutical tracking, cosmetics labeling, jewelry tracking, and other applications requiring invisible or unobtrusive tagging.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the read range of mini inlays?
Read range varies by size: 5.5-7mm inlays achieve 10-20cm, 10mm inlays reach 20-50cm, and 12-15mm inlays can read up to 0.5-1 meter with standard reader settings. Environmental factors and reader power also affect actual range.
What chips are available?
We support Alien HEC, NXP UCode 9, NXP UCODE M4QT, Impinj M4E, and other popular UHF chips. Each chip offers different memory configurations and performance characteristics — contact us to select the best option for your application.
Can I get custom sizes?
Yes, we offer custom sizes beyond our standard 5.5-15mm range. Custom configurations may require higher MOQ and have different pricing — please contact us for specific requirements.
Dry inlay vs Wet inlay — which to choose?
Dry inlay (PET base only) is ideal for integration into your own labels or packaging materials. Wet inlay comes with adhesive backing, ready for direct application without additional processing.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 10,000 pcs for most configurations. MOQ varies by size and chip selection. Contact us for sample orders and specific pricing for smaller quantities.
Can you pre-encode the chips?
Yes, we offer pre-encoding services with your specific EPC data, serial numbers, or barcodes. Encoding can be done before shipment to save you processing time.
