Numbered Ear Tags SL 83

Product Overview

The SL-83 is a pre-numbered finished ear tag, shown in the product image as two neat rows: a teal tag group with large printed digits and an orange group numbered 411 through 420. The image title, typed finished ear tag, means the tags arrive already printed and ready to apply, with no writing or marking needed on the farm. Each tag carries a neck socket at the top that accepts the matching locking stud.

This finished style is for farms that want to skip hand marking and tag animals in strict sequence. The orange row clearly displays 411, 412, 413 up to 420, showing how one box can cover ten consecutive identities in one working pass. Teal and orange together give a two-tone display that helps keepers separate batches while numbers continue running.

Key Features and Benefits

• Pre-printed and ready to use - digits are applied at the factory, so staff apply tags straight from the bag without pens or printers.
• Consecutive series shown - the orange row displays 411 to 420 as a sample, proving the tags ship in ordered number runs.
• Two color groups - teal and orange tags let farms split work groups while keeping numbers under one catalog item.
• Bold vertical digits - numbers printed along the tag face stay visible from a natural reading angle as the animal stands.
• Neat strip packaging - tags are presented in an orderly row, which helps the farm keep the number sequence intact during storage.
• Standard stud fit - pairs with the usual round stud and plier, so existing farm tools still work.

Materials and Quality

Each SL-83 tag is molded in one piece from flexible TPU, with the neck socket formed during the same molding cycle. The digits are typed onto the face in dark ink, giving a clean, uniform look across the whole series. The matching stud follows the standard round disc shape with a metal pin tip that punches through the ear and locks into the socket.

Quality checks before shipment focus on number sequence and print alignment. Because this product is sold on its numbered series, a missing or duplicated digit inside a run would break the farm record, so sequence checks are part of every batch inspection. The typed ink is dark against the teal and orange plastic, and the neck socket at the top of each tag is molded open so the stud pin enters without pressure. Soft TPU keeps the body flexible when the cow or sheep shakes its head, which lowers tear-out rates compared with rigid plastic tags.

How to Use and Maintain

Keep the tags in their ordered strip until use, and take them one by one as animals are processed. Load the tag and its stud into a standard plier, punch through the middle of the ear, and release. Record the last number used at the end of each working day so the next session continues in sequence. Store unused strips away from direct sunlight to keep the typed digits sharp. When a strip runs out, write its final number in the herd book before opening the next box, so no animal is ever tagged twice by mistake.

Applications

The SL-83 finished tags suit commercial cattle and sheep farms that run strict identity records, because a numbered series removes human handwriting errors. Dairy farms use them when calving batches need fast, repeatable numbering, and breeding centers use them to tag sale animals before transport. The two-tone display also suits ranches that split summer and winter groups without changing numbering rules. Auction yards and collection centers appreciate the typed digits because they can read identities from the alley without handling each animal twice.

Distributors like stocking finished numbered tags because customers reorder whole series at a time, which makes restocking predictable. The tags pack flat and light, so a full carton covers thousands of identities without raising freight cost per tag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can I order my own number range instead of 411 to 420?

The 411 to 420 row is a display sample. For regular orders, starting digits and series length can be discussed with our sales team so your herd numbers run continuously across the year.

Q2: Are teal and orange sold together or separately?

The image shows both colors as a product view. Single-color or mixed-color packing can be arranged for bulk orders; tell us how many of each color you need.

Q3: What is the difference between this and a blank tag?

Blank tags let you write or laser-print any code yourself, while the SL-83 ships with factory-typed consecutive digits. Choose finished tags when you want zero marking work on the farm.

Q4: Can these tags be applied with any plier?

They work with standard ear tag pliers such as the SL-87 series. Order the plier together with the tags if your farm needs a fresh applicator for the new season.
