WG Shell Ink Tag

WG · hard tag + benefit denial · AM 58 kHz or RF 8.2 MHz · SuperLock

Full Shell-body acoustomagnetic hard tag with three ink cartridges (red, yellow, blue) hidden inside. The cartridges only break on a serious tamper attempt — at which point the merchandise gets stained and the would-be shoplifter takes the ink with them. Available in AM 58 kHz or RF 8.2 MHz, black or grey body. SuperLock pin with a broad polished surface that distributes load over the fabric and keeps the needle inaccessible to casual tampering.

Overview

Full-size shell hard tag with benefit-denial ink built in.

Standard WG Shell tag with one additional design intent: when an experienced shoplifter actually gets a tag off, the ink cartridges burst first. The result is unwearable, unsellable, and visibly ink-stained merchandise plus a visibly ink-stained thief. The broad SuperLock pin protects the fabric in normal use and resists casual tampering — but if force is applied, the benefit is denied. Comes complete with tag and pin, in either AM 58 kHz (TAG SHELL INK 58 BS/GS) for Sensormatic-compatible systems or RF 8.2 MHz (TAG SHELL INK 8.2 BS/GS) for Checkpoint-compatible systems.

Features

  • Three hidden ink cartridges — red, yellow, blue
  • Cartridges break on tamper — burst before pin releases
  • SuperLock magnetic pin with broad polished surface
  • AM 58 kHz or RF 8.2 MHz — same body, both frequencies
  • Black or grey body
  • Ferrite acoustomagnetic component, precisely tuned
