NFC Hose Tags

Rugged NFC hose tags built for hydraulic hose inspection and asset tracking. Attach one to every hose you supply, then tap with any smartphone to pull up its specs, pressure ratings, test certificate, and next service date — no app required.

• Track working & test pressure, fittings, and manufacturer
• Store test certificates and drawings on the record
• Automatic retest & replacement reminders with TagTrack
• Weatherproof and built for the field

Thanks to their TPU housing, these flexible NFC Tags are particularly suitable for use in industrial and/or marine environments, and easily applicable to round or irregular surfaces, such as cylindrical containers, plastic tubes, helmets, or trees too. They are resistant to mineral oils, seawater, temperature fluctuations, vibrations and shocks.

These NFC Tags can be fastened securely with cable ties, rivet, nails or screws.

For custom graphics, or custom color, minimum order quantity is 20,000 pieces. If interested, please contact us.
