Hallprint's polyethylene streamer tags are extremely popular with researchers for a wide variety of finfish and crustaceans including especially prawns (shrimp), juvenile fish and clawed lobster. A range of sizes are available with a variety of notch styles and sizes.

Hallprint pioneered a streamlined attachment of the disposable applicator needle to the tag to minimise the tag entry wound which is critical for tag retention and survival of delicate young fish and prawns. The standard needle length is now 58 mm (see on 2XW tag below) although the previous standard size of 38 mm (see on 2W tag below) is still available on request. Both needles are exactly the same gauge or diameter but most find the longer needles easier to use. Up to a maximum of seven alphanumberic characters may be used including sequential tag numbers.

Our streamer tags are all packaged in sequential number order in folded cards (25 per card) ready for easy field application as standard but can also be purchased in sequential lots of 50 in plastic bags at a reduced price.

Please note that we are now only able to print sequential numbers on one "wing" of most of the PST tag range as per the 13S tag below. It may be possible to print on both wings on some of the larger models but please check with Hallprint first before ordering.
