RFID NFC security tag SCOT NTAG213 18 mm transparent, pack of 10

SCOT NTAG213 18 mm transparent RFID NFC security tags are compact passive labels designed for small-item identification and short-range wireless communication. Each tag contains an NTAG213 chipset that conforms to NFC Forum standards and supports read/write operations for storing small amounts of data. Supplied as a pack of 10, these transparent discs provide a low-profile solution for applications where discreet tagging and NFC compatibility are required.

Advantages

The 18 mm transparent design enables unobtrusive placement on a variety of surfaces, while the NTAG213 chipset ensures broad compatibility with NFC-enabled smartphones and readers. As passive tags, they require no internal power source and offer simple read/write functionality for basic data storage, identification, and authentication tasks. The small diameter and thin profile make them suitable for items with limited mounting space.

Suitable for

• Asset tracking of small items and tools
• Access control and event management
• Product authentication and anti-counterfeit labeling
• Inventory tagging in retail or storage with limited space
• Smart posters, packaging, and interactive marketing with NFC-enabled devices

How to use

Peel and attach the transparent tag to a clean, dry surface ensuring good adhesion and minimal curvature for reliable reads. Use any NFC-enabled smartphone or compatible reader to write identifying data, URLs, or small records to the tag using standard NFC writing applications. For repeated updates, use the read/write functionality to modify stored content as needed. Follow reader app prompts to set password protection or lock the tag when final data should remain unchanged.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, apply tags to non-metallic surfaces or use suitable spacers/anti-metal sleeves when attaching to metal objects. Store unused tags in a dry, room-temperature environment away from strong electromagnetic fields. When securing sensitive data, enable password protection or permanently lock the tag after programming.
