Project Description

DuraDestruct RFID Tags – Plastic

T his patent-pending RFID security tag product combines the durability of our standard RFID tag with destructible features that render the label useless if it is removed or tampered with. Its specialized construction eliminates the transferability of the RFID tag and incorporates two levels of destructibility. If someone attempts to remove the tag the RFID antenna construction breaks into separate pieces making the read range of the tag mere inches. If a person tries to reassemble the tag to make it functional, the portion that is still adhered to will literally disintegrate if an attempt is made to remove it from the object.

The plastic surface mount DuraDestruct UHF RFID tags are part of the DuraDestruct line of tamper/security tags that also includes glass surface mount RFID tags.

Material Polyester
Serialization Bar code and human-readable equivalent are produced using the latest high-resolution digital technology available, which provides excellent clarity and easy scanning. Code 39 is the standard symbology with a range of 2.7 to 5.4 CPI (characters per inch). Optional symbology is Code 128.
Label Copy The label copy may include block type, stylized type, logos or other designs
Colors Standard colors include black, red, yellow, green, dark blue, orange, purple or blue. Custom spot colors are also available at no additional charge. Due to contrast needed for the bar code scanner, all bar codes are black.
Standard Adhesive Pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive
Frequency Range Worldwide UHF RFID Operation (840 – 960 MHz)
Sizes 101mm x 25mm
Packaging Produced and shipped in roll form
Shipment 14 business days

Chemical Test Summary

Samples applied to glass panels, allowed to wet out for 72 hours, immersed in chemicals below at ambient room temperature conditions. Inlays in all samples still reading after 48 hours of exposure.
Key: NE = No effect; AO = adhesive ooze; PE = print erosion under laminate

Temperature Test Summary
Samples applied to glass panels at ambient room temperature conditions, sit for 72 hours, then placed in freezer set to -40°C for 24 hours. All inlays reading prior to removal from the freezer, all tags still destructible prior to removal from the freezer. Samples then exposed to each temperature noted below for 1 hour. All tags still destructible while at 93°C. Inlays quit reading after exposure to 204°C.
Key: NE = no effect; TD = Sample materials discolored; TP = Sample print degradation; TM = Tag melted/destroyed; SS = sample shrinking; adhesive ooze at edges
