Warehouse Aluminum Barcode Asset Tag — 1 x 2.625 in (25x67 mm) Rectangle, 5 mil anodized aluminum (0.1 mm)
Anodized Aluminum, 1 x 2.625 in (25×67 mm) rectangle, 5 mil anodized aluminum (0.1 mm). Supports custom text, logo, barcode, QR code, serial numbers and Excel/CSV variable data. Ideal for warehouse & logistics. Tiered pricing for 100 / 300 / 500 / 1000 pcs.
Anodized Aluminum tag for warehouse & logistics — from $0.68/pc. A 1 x 2.625 in (25×67 mm) rectangle, 5 mil anodized aluminum (0.13 mm), marked with your custom text, logo, barcode, QR code or serial numbers. The rectangular profile gives the most room for multi-line text, a logo and a barcode. The print sits below the sealed anodic layer, so abrasion, UV and most chemicals wear the surface, not your barcode or serial number.
Applications — where to use
This Anodized Aluminum tag at 5 mil anodized aluminum (0.13 mm) is built for:
- Warehouse & logistics: used on racking, bins, pallets and material-handling equipment in high-traffic warehouse and logistics operations.
- Serialized numbering: used on assets that need unique sequential IDs in serialized inventory and audit workflows.
- Barcode tracking: used on items scanned for check-in, check-out and audits in barcode-driven tracking workflows.
- Inventory control: used on stock, materials and inventory items in cycle-count and inventory-control workflows.
Is this the right size? At 2.63 in² (16.94 cm²) of marking face this is a mid-size tag — the size we quote most often for pumps, gearboxes, control boxes and portable test equipment. It holds about 30 characters on a line, with room for a QR code and a 1D barcode alongside the text. It fastens through a punched hole to your drawing, so it does not depend on surface preparation.
Where it is the wrong choice: sustained heat above 150 °C, or strong alkaline washdown — caustic cleaners attack the anodic layer that is protecting the printed data. Move to an etched metal plate for either. See stainless steel asset tags for that case.

Area and weight are calculated from the nominal dimensions and 0.13 mm substrate thickness; weight is the tag material only and excludes adhesive liner or packaging. Material figures are the values this material class is specified to rather than a lot-specific test result; etch depth, anodic layer and hole geometry are our standard process settings.

FAQ
How much text fits on a 1 x 2.625 in Anodized Aluminum tag?
About 30 small, readable characters; supports multiple lines, a logo and a barcode/QR. The smallest reliably readable character height is 0.070 in (1.8 mm) high, marked sub-surface printed across 2.63 in² (16.94 cm²) of tag face. Send your exact wording or data file and we lay it out on a free digital proof before production.
Will a scannable QR code fit on a 1 x 2.625 in tag?
Yes — at 1 x 2.625 in this tag fits a scannable QR code, and it fits a standard 1D barcode. Every coded batch is scan-tested before it ships. Send the destination URL or the data string and we generate the code at the correct module size for this face.
What is the reference price for a 1 x 2.625 in Anodized Aluminum tag?
The listed reference price is $0.68/pc at 1000 pieces, rising to $1.08/pc at the 100-piece minimum — $679.00 for the 1000-piece run. Standard tiers are 100 / 300 / 500 / 1000 pieces. Custom options typically change the unit price by about US$0.30-US$0.60 per piece. The written quote confirms the final specification and price; freight is quoted separately.
How thick is this tag, and what does a 1,000-piece run weigh?
5 mil anodized aluminum — 0.13 mm at the substrate. Each 1 x 2.625 in tag weighs about 0.58 g, so 1,000 pieces come to roughly 581 g of material — useful when you are estimating freight. Calculated from the nominal dimensions and substrate density; adhesive liner and packaging are extra.
Do the mounting holes come punched, or do we drill them?
Adhesive; Mounting holes. Holes are punched here to your layout — tell us single or double, and we position them on the proof so they clear your text.
Will the tag still scan after pallet and forklift contact?
The marking is not the weak point — on this substrate the data sits below the surface, so scuffing dulls the finish without taking the code with it. What does matter at 1 x 2.625 in is where you put it: on rack uprights and bin fronts, mount it face-on and clear of the strike zone at the bottom of the bay. Send us your rack layout with the enquiry and we will size the code for the scan distance you actually work at.
How long does production take for 1 x 2.625 in tags?
5-8 business days after proof approval. Nothing is cut or marked before sign-off, so the clock starts at approval, not at order. We scan-test coded batches, then ship with tracking.
