FAQs:

What are TagMatiks Kickstart 4" x 6" RFID Labels?

These are UHF RFID smart labels that are pre-printed and pre-encoded, specifically designed for kickstarting RFID implementations. With their large format, they’re ideal for shipping labels, pallet tags, and large inventory items.

What are the dimensions of these labels?

Each label measures 4 inches wide by 6 inches high, providing ample space for:

Human-readable text

Barcodes or QR codes

Branding

Embedded RFID technology

What surfaces can these labels be applied to?

They’re designed for non-metal surfaces such as:

• Cardboard boxes
• Plastic bins
• Shrink-wrapped pallets
• Paper or wood containers

For metal surfaces, use on-metal RFID tags instead.

What RFID chip is embedded in these labels?

They commonly use high-performance chips like the Impinj M730, offering:
High sensitivity
128 bits EPC memory (96 bits standard)

EPC Global Gen2v2 and ISO 18000-6C compliant

Depending on project requirements these labels can also be provided with other chips like M830, U9 or M781. Please contact us if you have any specific chip requirement.

Can these labels be printed or encoded again?

No. Kickstart labels are pre-encoded and pre-printed, making them ready for use without any RFID printers or encoders. They’re ideal for pilots, testing, and basic deployments.

What applications are best for this label size?

The 4" x 6" format is ideal for:

• Pallet-level tagging
• Shipping and logistics labels
• Large containers or crates
• Warehouse bin identification
• Retail or manufacturing bulk tracking

Are the labels durable?

Yes. These labels use synthetic face stock and industrial-grade adhesive, offering strong durability for indoor and semi-industrial environments. For rough handling or outdoor use, consider rugged RFID tags.

Are these labels compatible with my RFID hardware and software?

Yes. The labels comply with EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C standards, ensuring broad compatibility with UHF RFID readers, printers, and software, including TagMatiks AT Lite and Enterprise platforms.

• What are the benefits of using Kickstart labels?
• Quick and easy deployment
• No need for encoding or printing equipment
• Consistent data and label quality
• Perfect for pilots, demos, and getting started with RFID

Where is the best location to attach the TagMatiks Kickstart 4" x 6" RFID Label?

Answer:
The TagMatiks Kickstart 4" x 6" RFID Labels are general-purpose UHF RFID labels designed for non-metallic surfaces, such as cardboard, plastic, and wood. For best results, apply the label to a flat, clean, and dry surface that does not contain metal. These labels are ideal for boxes, cartons, pallets, and plastic containers used in inventory, shipping, and logistics. Avoid placing the label near metal objects or directly on metal surfaces, as that can significantly reduce read performance. Ensure full contact between the adhesive side of the label and the surface to maintain a strong bond and consistent readability.

What is the read range of the TagMatiks Kickstart 4" x 6" RFID Label?

Answer:
Under optimal conditions, the TagMatiks Kickstart 4" x 6" RFID Label can achieve a read range of up to 20-25 feet (approximately 6 to 7.5 meters) when used with a standard fixed UHF RFID reader. Read range may vary depending on the RFID reader’s power output, antenna configuration, label placement, and environmental factors such as interference from nearby materials or other tags. For handheld readers, the range may be somewhat shorter, typically 8 to 15 feet, depending on the device’s capabilities.
