Both the “Black Square” and “Hammer” tags are commonly used anti-theft tags in retail stores, each suited for specific scenarios. The RF “Black Square” tag is compact and slim, suitable for most flat items; it is easy to install and does not damage the product’s appearance. The AM “Hammer” tag with a cord secures the item by tying it with the cord—no piercing required—making it ideal for irregularly shaped or bottled items, and offering excellent anti-theft reliability.
2.Tag Selection Guidelines
When selecting anti-theft tags, it is essential to ensure compatibility with the corresponding system equipment. The RF “Black Square” is compatible with RF systems, while the AM “Hammer” tag is compatible with AM systems. Stores should consider their existing access control equipment and the physical characteristics of the merchandise they sell to select the most suitable anti-theft tags.
Choosing the right anti-theft tags maximizes the effectiveness of the EAS system and minimizes operational losses caused by merchandise theft.
