First InfoSight invented the X-Tag™, an atmospheric annealing tag that insured text and barcode readability through long heat soaks. Now we can offer the CA-Tag, the only barcodable tag designed to survive in oxygen-free, contaminant-free annealing ovens, without burning-up or blacking-out
- For use with carbon steel, stainless steel, copper and exotic alloys.
- Withstands long and multiple cycles at temperatures up to 1800°F.
- Wide variety of attachment options.
- Samples available – test CA-Tag in your furnace before ordering.
