Flat RFID bib tag eliminates foam backing

Metalcraft Announces FastTrack RFID Race Timing Tags

Metalcraft introduced FastTrack RFID race timing tags that eliminate the foam backing common among RFID bib tags. Now, racers can wear a flat, weatherproof race bib against the body that gets read at the finish line. Samples are available via idplate.com today.

FastTrack RFID race timing tags feature a unique inlay that performs as well or better than comparable tags that have a backing spacer, and the self-tuning NXP UCODE 8 chip ensures accurate reads regardless of location.

“Metalcraft’s RFID timing tags offer peace of mind to race directors and event participants because, without a foam spacer, these tags stay in place and won’t catch on clothing,” said Kyle Bermel, Chief Operating Officer.

Metalcraft’s tag works with all RFID race timing systems, offering a non-proprietary option for race directors. Custom printing and custom numbering are available at no additional cost.
