Gold Rectangle Dog Tag, 42 × 26 mm
A gold bar tag with the look of metal and the weight of epoxy
The CG-PET-EPX-RT42X26 is our gold rectangle dog tag, the bar-shaped partner to the 50 mm gold round. We print the CG-PET-EPX-RT42X26 on a PVC or PET core and dome both faces with clear epoxy, giving a glossy 42 × 26 mm tag approximately 4–5 mm thick that weighs 4.5–6 g. For tap-and-scan IDs we embed a genuine NXP NTAG213 under the back print of the CG-PET-EPX-RT42X26, beside the QR code. From 100 to 999 pieces the CG-PET-EPX-RT42X26 unit price is US$0.35 to 1.20; one-piece samples are available.
