CG-PET-SSF-BN42X29 Dimensions

The BN42X29 keeps the bone outline that dog owners recognize, with the steel closing around a matching bone insert. The 3 mm hole takes a split ring, an S-hook or a jump ring.
At 42 × 29 mm the bone suits small and medium dogs, and its wide ends give the QR code room on the back.

Chip Options for the CG-PET-SSF-BN42X29
Every CG-PET-SSF-BN42X29 insert carries a genuine NXP NTAG213 as standard, not a generic compatible chip, so a phone tap on the 42 x 29 mm frame opens the profile quickly. NXP rates the NTAG21x for 10-year data retention and an operating distance of up to 10 cm with a suitable reader; through the 42 x 29 mm steel frame the tag is read with a close tap, which is how NFC pet tags are used.
