Product Overview

RFIDSU's PPS Button RFID Tags are durable, high-temperature resistant RFID tags molded from PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) engineering plastic in a round button design. Built around the NXP ICODE SLIX and ICODE SLIX 2 chips with ISO 15693 protocol, these tags operate at 13.56 MHz with reliable performance in industrial laundry, high-temperature sterilization, and textile tracking. Double-sided PPS injection molding provides waterproof, shockproof, and high-temperature resistance up to 220°C, while the surface supports direct silk-screen printing, pad printing, inkjet, or laser engraving of logos and serial numbers.

Available in multiple sizes from Ø13mm to Ø30mm, each with specific thickness and hole configurations — no-hole, single-hole, or double-hole — with hole diameters from 1.5mm to 12.8mm. The PPS material withstands operating temperatures from -20°C to +220°C and storage up to 250°C. Ideal applications include garment management, hotel linen tracking, product anti-counterfeiting, personnel identification, industrial laundry, and medical textile sterilization.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ICODE SLIX and ICODE SLIX 2?
Both are NXP ISO 15693 chips with ISO 14443A dual compatibility. ICODE SLIX offers 1024 bits of memory and is the industry standard for laundry and textile tracking. ICODE SLIX 2 provides 2560 bits of memory with faster inventory speed, making it ideal for high-volume applications requiring larger data storage. Both chips deliver reliable performance through harsh washing environments.
Can these tags survive autoclave sterilization?
Yes. The PPS material withstands operating temperatures up to 220°C and storage up to 250°C, making these tags suitable for standard autoclave sterilization cycles at 121°C or 134°C. The double-sided injection molding encapsulation protects the RFID chip through repeated sterilization and washing.
How do I choose the right size and hole configuration?
We offer sizes from Ø13mm to Ø30mm. Single-hole designs are ideal for sew-through attachment like a button. Double-hole designs provide additional security for high-vibration environments. No-hole designs are suitable for pocket insertion. Contact us with your garment type and attachment method for a recommendation.
What is the difference between single-sided and double-sided injection molding?
Double-sided injection molding encapsulates the RFID chip between two layers of PPS plastic, providing maximum protection against water, chemicals, and physical stress. Single-sided molding is used for cost-sensitive applications where one side of the tag is protected by the garment seam. Double-sided is recommended for industrial laundry environments.
Can I get different RFID frequencies in the same PPS button form factor?
Yes. While this product focuses on 13.56 MHz ISO 15693 (ICODE SLIX series), we also manufacture PPS button tags in 125 kHz (LF) and 902–920 MHz (UHF) frequencies. Contact our sales team at [email protected] for multi-frequency requirements or custom chip combinations.
