The KettleTag® or KettleTag®PLUS is a metal tag that can withstand the entire galvanizing process. The tags are printed via a specialized high-contrast laser-marked coating. Used primarily by galvanizers and fabricators, a tag can be attached to each project piece for the duration of the project, adding critical identifying information and easing quality control.

Tags are generally used for metal that will undergo the galvanization or hot-dip process. Tags are great for identifying any steel piece for any commercial or industrial project. The tags can withstand high temperatures, chemicals including caustic & acid rinses, molten zinc bath, abrasion, and UV exposure. Some fabricators like to attach them to every project piece simply for identification and quality control.

KettleTags require much less time and resources than stamping. They are easy to attach and can even include things like barcodes that can work seamlessly with QC systems. Less room for human error–attaches once without worrying that numbers and letters will be compromised from heat or chemicals.

It depends on the size of the tag, but a general rule is that for each inch in height about two lines of text can fit. Each line of text can fit anywhere from about 10-16 characters depending on the size of the text. See guidelines on each tag product description. Barcodes and QR codes will take up more room. Please contact us with questions–we can usually help you find a solution that fits your needs.
