Tracking in a new dimension with a UHF RFID tag shaped like an M16 screw

The H3-M16 tag is a rugged solution designed for equipment tracking in the most demanding conditions. Made of damage-resistant steel, the tag offers maximum protection thanks to its solid metal construction, which makes it ideal for the oil and gas industry and for tracking outdoor equipment. Mounted like an M16 screw, it allows easy and secure fastening to metal objects, enabling permanent installation in harsh industrial environments. It operates at 865-868 MHz for Europe and 902-928 MHz for the United States and offers a read range of up to 200 cm with a stationary reader. It is an excellent solution for asset management and production control, providing reliable tracking even in the toughest conditions. Browse more RFID tags in our offer.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a bolt-shaped RFID tag over a standard label tag?

Adhesive and screw-on label tags can peel off under heat, vibration, moisture, or mechanical contact — especially on metal surfaces. The bolt-shaped Tag-H3-M16 is mechanically fastened into the asset itself, making it impossible to accidentally remove and immune to surface contamination. It is the right choice whenever tag permanence is a legal, safety, or compliance requirement.

What RFID readers are compatible with the Tag-H3-M16?

The Tag-H3-M16 is compatible with any standard UHF RFID reader operating in the 865–868 MHz band (EU) or 902–928 MHz band (US) and supporting the EPC Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C protocol. Both fixed (stationary) readers and handheld UHF RFID readers from HDWR and other manufacturers work with this tag.

Can the tag be read on metal surfaces?

Yes. The Tag-H3-M16 is specifically designed for on-metal use. The bolt construction inherently integrates with the metal asset, and the antenna design compensates for the detuning effect that metal has on standard RFID labels. Reading performance on metal is fully within the specified range (up to 120 cm handheld, up to 200 cm stationary).
