These labels adhere and perform well on:

• Plastic
• Cardboard
• Paper
• Wood
• Glass

Painted or finished surfaces (non-metallic)

What is the typical read range of these RFID labels?

They offer a read range of 10–15 feet (3–4.5 meters), depending on the reader power, antenna configuration, and environmental conditions.

What RFID chip is embedded in these labels?

They usually include high-performance chips like the Impinj M730, offering:

Fast and accurate reads

EPC memory (128 bits)

Consistent performance across a wide frequency range

Where is the best location to attach the TagMatiks Kickstart 1.75" x 0.75" Poly RFID Label?

Answer:
The TagMatiks Kickstart 1.75" x 0.75" Poly RFID Label is designed for use on non-metallic surfaces such as plastic, cardboard, paper, and wood. For best performance, attach the label to a clean, flat, and dry surface to ensure strong adhesion and optimal RFID readability. These labels are ideal for small assets, packaging, or items with limited space for tagging. Avoid applying the label on metal or highly curved surfaces, as this can reduce read efficiency.

What is the read range of the TagMatiks Kickstart 1.75" x 0.75" Poly RFID Label?

Answer:
Under ideal conditions with a fixed UHF RFID reader, the TagMatiks Kickstart 1.75" x 0.75" Poly RFID Label can achieve a read range of up to 10-15 feet (approximately 3 to 4.5 meters). The actual read distance depends on factors such as reader power, antenna type, tag placement, and environmental conditions. Handheld readers may have a shorter read range, typically around 5 to 10 feet, depending on the device and scanning orientation.
