Custom Metal Tags for Permanent Identification

Specified when printed label failure creates operational risk, downtime, or compliance exposure. Used where identification must remain legible through cleaning cycles, abrasion, chemicals, and long-term environmental exposure.

Used for serialized asset tracking, compliance labeling, fleet identification, and OEM programs requiring repeatable, long-term durability.

Built for Industrial Identification Programs

Metal tags engineered for exterior durability, controlled attachment, and repeatable production at scale.

Exterior Durability

Engineered to withstand UV exposure, wash cycles, chemicals, and corrosive outdoor environments without loss of legibility.

Industrial Attachment Options

Adhesive, rivet, or bolt on mounting specified by application, surface condition, and service life requirements.

Scalable Production

Programs starting at 100 units and scaling into the tens of thousands with locked specifications and consistent quality.

Precision and Alignment

Tight tolerances engineered to integrate cleanly with existing equipment, enclosures, and mounting hardware.

Where Metal Identification Tags Are Required

Specified when identification failure is not acceptable. Operational risk, downtime, and compliance exposure are eliminated at the identification level.

Asset and Equipment Identification

Permanent identification required for tools, machinery, and fixed assets exposed to abrasion, cleaning cycles, chemicals, and outdoor conditions.

Used where printed labels degrade, detach, or lose legibility over time.

Fleet and Transportation Programs

Vehicle and fleet identification required for asset tracking, inspection workflows, maintenance records, and lifecycle management across large scale programs.

Applied where traceability must survive vibration, weather, and routine service cycles.

Compliance, Rating Plates, and Valve Identification

Serialized or engraved metal tags required for regulatory labeling, safety information, pressure ratings, equipment certification, and valve identification.

Used in systems exposed to heat, pressure, chemicals, or corrosive operating environments.

Industrial and OEM Labeling

Identification components integrated into OEM products for repeatable long term production programs.

Specified where controlled tolerances, consistent marking, and validated attachment are non negotiable.

Material, marking method, and attachment are specified by environment, required lifespan, and production volume. Not aesthetics. Not convenience.

Metal Tag FAQs

We accept vector files including AI, EPS and PDF. High resolution raster files such as PSD, PNG or TIFF may be acceptable depending on marking method. Our engineering team will review all artwork and confirm suitability before production.

Programs typically start at 100 units. Lower quantities may be possible for prototypes or sample approvals depending on material process and marking method.

Dimensions hole patterns and artwork placement are controlled through engineered drawings and validated during pre production review. Tolerances are confirmed based on material thickness process capability and mounting method.

Attachment options include pressure sensitive adhesive mounting holes or a combination of adhesive and mechanical fastening. Final attachment method is specified based on surface type environment and service conditions.

Standard production time is 3 weeks after artwork and specifications are approved. Expedited programs may be available depending on material availability and process requirements.
