Frequently Asked Questions

What is a spin tag and how does it prevent theft?

A spin tag is a type of retail security hard tag that uses a rotating ball-bearing mechanism inside the tag body. This spinning action makes the pin almost impossible to pull out by force without the correct detacher tool. Spin tags are widely used for clothing, footwear, and accessories in retail stores and are designed to be a strong physical deterrent against shoplifting.

Are spin tags compatible with AM and RF EAS systems?

Yes, spin tags in the Leading Solutions range are available in AM 58 kHz and RF 8.2 MHz variants to suit the most common EAS gate systems used by New Zealand retailers, including Checkpoint and Sensormatic systems. Check the individual product listing to confirm the frequency matches your existing EAS infrastructure.

Are spin tags reusable?

Yes, spin tags are designed to be reusable. Once removed at the point of sale using the appropriate detacher, they can be refitted to new stock. This makes them a cost-effective loss prevention solution for high-volume retailers who tag and detach large quantities of merchandise daily.

What detacher tool is needed to remove spin tags?

Spin tags require a dedicated detacher tool - either a magnetic detacher or a mechanical key-style detacher, depending on the specific tag model. Leading Solutions stocks compatible detachers for the spin tags in our range. It is important to use the correct detacher to avoid damaging the tag or the merchandise.

Can spin tags be used on clothing, footwear, and accessories?

Yes, spin tags are versatile and are commonly used on clothing (attached through fabric via the security pin), footwear, handbags, accessories, and other merchandise where a physical deterrent is required. Different pin types and tag sizes are available to suit different fabric weights and merchandise types.

Do you offer bulk pricing on spin tags for New Zealand retailers?

Yes, Leading Solutions offers bulk and trade pricing on spin tags for retailers, loss prevention managers, and security suppliers. Discounts apply for larger order quantities.
