Security Tamper-Evident Vinyl Asset Tag — 1 x 2 in (25x51 mm) Rectangle, 2 mil durable film (0.05 mm)
Tamper-Evident Vinyl, 1 x 2 in (25×51 mm) rectangle, 2 mil durable film (0.05 mm). Supports custom text, logo, barcode, QR code, serial numbers and Excel/CSV variable data. Ideal for tamper-evident & security. Tiered pricing for 100 / 300 / 500 / 1000 pcs.
Tamper-Evident Vinyl tag for tamper-evident & security — from $1.00/pc. A 1 x 2 in (25×51 mm) rectangle, 2 mil durable film (0.05 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. Destructible tamper-evident stock leaves a VOID pattern if anyone tries to peel the tag, turning the label itself into a security control.
Applications — where to use
This Tamper-Evident Vinyl tag at 2 mil durable film (0.05 mm) is built for:
- Tamper-evident & security: used on high-value assets that need tamper protection in anti-theft and warranty-control use.
- Fixed asset tracking: used on capital assets, furniture and facility equipment in long-term fixed-asset registers and audits.
- IT & office equipment: used on computers, monitors, servers and office equipment in clean indoor office and IT environments.
Is this the right size? At 2 in² (12.9 cm²) of marking face this is a mid-size tag — the size we quote most often for desktops, servers, AV gear and lab instruments. It holds about 22 characters on a line, with room for a QR code and a 1D barcode alongside the text. It goes on with permanent acrylic adhesive, so the surface has to be clean, smooth and dry.
Where it is the wrong choice: assets that get re-tagged, re-numbered or moved between owners. Removal destroys this tag — that is the whole point of it — so anywhere labels are expected to change, the destructive face film works against you. See polyester asset tags for that case.

Area and weight are calculated from the nominal dimensions and 0.05 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 in Tamper-Evident Vinyl tag?
About 22 small, readable characters; supports multiple lines, a logo and a barcode/QR. The smallest reliably readable character height is 0.060 in (1.5 mm) high, marked printed (void stock) across 2 in² (12.9 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 in tag?
Yes — at 1 x 2 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 in Tamper-Evident Vinyl tag?
The listed reference price is $1.00/pc at 1000 pieces, rising to $3.30/pc at the 100-piece minimum — $1002.00 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.
Why is the reference price higher than the anodized aluminum version of the same tag?
The listed 500-piece reference price is $0.71/pc for anodized aluminum and $1.42/pc for this material. It is rated to 150 °C continuous where this one holds 80 °C. Use the performance requirements to choose the material. Custom options typically change the unit price by about US$0.30-US$0.60 per piece, and the written quote confirms the final price.
How thick is this tag, and what does a 1,000-piece run weigh?
2 mil durable film — 0.05 mm at the substrate. Each 1 x 2 in tag weighs about 0.09 g, so 1,000 pieces come to roughly 86 g of material — useful when you are estimating freight. Calculated from the nominal dimensions and substrate density; adhesive liner and packaging are extra.
What surface preparation does the adhesive need?
Adhesive; Removable adhesive. Clean and dry the surface before application; the bond reaches full strength within 24 hours.
What happens if someone tries to remove the tag?
The face film gives before the adhesive does, so the tag breaks up or leaves a VOID pattern on the asset — the attempt is visible on inspection and the label cannot be lifted whole and re-applied elsewhere. That also means it is one-way: a 1 x 2 in tag on an asset you later re-number or transfer has to be scraped off and replaced, not peeled. Service range is -29 to 80 °C.
How long does production take for 1 x 2 in tags?
5-7 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.
