HID IQ On-Metal Label RFID Tags

HID Global IQ On-Metal (OM) Labels are white PET labels that may be encoded and printed in standard label printers to apply logos, barcodes, QR codes or text (except IQ OM LR). Their flexible special shielding allows application on flat or curved metallic objects like liquid containers, laptops, pipes or machinery.

HID IQ on-metal Labels come in different form factors to suit various applications in an optimal size to performance ratio. NFC labels are NFC Tag Type 2 compliant and may be used with any NFC compatible phone or device. RAIN® RFID UHF labels are available in FCC (US) or ETSI (EU) variants. All labels are delivered on reels for easy processing in a label printer.

For industrial applications, HF and UHF on-metal labels enhance the speed and accuracy of inventory and process management systems. Using RAIN® RFID technology, each labeled asset can be identified in the supply chain or connected via Internet of Things (IoT), enabling businesses and consumers to identify, locate, authenticate and engage each item.

HID guarantees each individual RFID IQ Labels tag will perform to specifications. Our quality assurance streamlines processing and encoding to keep your projects on time and on budget.

These easy to use labels are great for tracking IT assets in data centers and offices, including computers and equipment such as furniture or small returnable transport items (RTIs). The range of sizes and high temperature capabilities also broadens the use cases to manufacturing, warehouses, hospitals, laboratories and even weaponry.

Printable labels for off-metal use or labels that include passive sensors for temperature and humidity, are described in a separate datasheet
