Metal numbered tags are used by diverse industries due to their durability and ability to provide clear identification. Common applications include:
- Warehousing – By using these tags, you can properly keep track of items and prevent lost inventory. This is especially useful in busy environments like warehouses and factories, where items can often be misplaced.
- Asset management – Metal numbered tags are used to label and track assets such as machinery, equipment, and tools in industrial settings. The numbering system facilitates efficient inventory management and maintenance scheduling.
- Inventory control – Retailers can use numbered tags to identify and track inventory items. This helps streamline stock management, monitor restocking needs, and prevent errors in the supply chain.
- Cable and wiring identification – In telecommunications, data centers, and industrial settings, metal numbered tags are attached to cables and wires to label them for easy identification during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
- Utilities and pipelines – Metal serial number tags are used in the utility industryto mark a variety of components, such as poles, valves, meters, and pipes. This aids in asset tracking, maintenance, and compliance with safety regulations.
- Aerospace components – In the aerospace industry, numbered metal tags are affixed to components and parts to ensure traceability, quality control, and compliance with regulatory standards.
- Equipment inspection and identification – Numbered tags are often used in equipment inspection processes. Each piece of equipment is assigned a unique number, and inspectors can record and track inspection details using these numbered tags. Serialized tags are an excellent solution for labeling equipment in industries like construction, manufacturing, and oil and gas.
- Job tagging – Many organizations implement job tags into their manufacturing or service processes. Oftentimes in this process, each part of a job is assigned a standardized number. Job tagging helps to streamline processes and prevent mistakes or misplaced pieces.
In short, there is an incredibly wide range of uses for custom serial number tags. While simple in nature, numbered nameplates can serve prominent roles as asset tags for various inventory management applications.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Sequential Number Tags
How durable are your custom aluminum serial number tags?
Our metal serial number tags are engineered for longevity, providing reliable performance in even the harshest environments. Whether exposed to extreme heat, freezing temperatures, heavy abrasion, or prolonged UV exposure, these tags are built to maintain their clarity and function for decades, and often last the same lifetime of the asset or equipment they’re attached to.
Can consecutive number tags take the place of barcodes?
Yes, barcode scanning systems aren’t always the right fit for every business, which is why custom consecutive number tags can be more beneficial. Barcode systems can be time-consuming to set up and implement. Plus, there’s the additional investment of scanning devices and tracking software. This is what makes serialized asset tags a useful alternative.
What can be customized with sequential number tags?
At Metal Marker Mfg., we strive to provide unique identification solutions. This means your serial number labels are custom-made for your needs. With your exact specifications, we’ll produce a nameplate that meets your company’s needs.
Here are a few examples of attributes we can adjust:
- Size
- Shape
- Thickness
- Color (anodized aluminum)

Our Processes for Creating Custom Number Tags
- Embossed – One of the best processes for serialized numbering is our metal embossing process. This creates very durable nameplates with raised characters. The numbers will stay legible even when they get painted over or become exposed to dirt and grime.
- Stamped – This is another viable option for creating serial number tags. These tags feature numbers that are directly indented into the material, providing a long-lasting solution.
- MetalPhoto – If you want a serialized tag, but also need to add a barcode or QR code, photo anodization is a better solution for you.
