Allflex Livestock Tags Australia

Looking for Allflex tags in Australia? This Allflex hub is designed to help you quickly choose the right Allflex livestock identification gear |Farm & Acre Co| whether you’re tagging for NLIS, setting up scanning/record-keeping, or improving day-to-day mob management.

Allflex manufactures a wide range of livestock identification solutions (cattle, sheep & goats, pigs), plus the tools that make the system work on-farm—tag applicators, RFID readers/scanners, and tissue sampling units (TSU). 
Allflex also describes itself as part of MSD Animal Health’s livestock digital portfolio and a global provider of animal identification and traceability solutions. 

Quick answers farmers ask us most

Are Allflex tags NLIS accredited/approved?
Allflex states its Electronic Identification (RFID) cattle tags are NLIS accredited/approved for Australia, and it also positions its sheep/goat eID products (e.g., RapID Tag) as NLIS accredited/compliant. 
NLIS itself is administered through Integrity Systems and is Australia’s traceability system for cattle, sheep, and goats.

In Australia’s NLIS device standard, devices are specified to contain ISO 11784/11785 compliant HDX transponders. 
Many modern readers scan both—for example, Allflex’s AWR250 stick reader lists reading capability for HDX and FDX‑B transponders. 

Which NLIS cattle tag do I need: breeder (white) or post-breeder (orange)?
Integrity Systems explains breeder tags are white (used to ID cattle before they leave their property of birth) and post-breeder tags are orange (used for introduced livestock not already identified, or animals that have lost their original tag). 
Allflex provides the same breeder vs post-breeder (white vs orange) summary on its NLIS cattle tag product information. 

Which Allflex tag applicator should I use?
Allflex notes its RFID cattle tag can be applied with UTT3S®, UltraMatic®, or Identiplier® applicators, and also highlights that different applicator styles exist to match operator preference and workflow.

Why farmers choose Allflex tags

Farmers usually aren’t just buying a tag—they’re buying a system that has to survive real yards, real weather, and real throughput. Allflex’s positioning focuses on a few practical outcomes:

Allflex describes its cattle ID tags as made of high-quality materials and designed for animal safety/comfort, durability/retention, and easy application/readability. 
For NLIS cattle RFID tags specifically, Allflex highlights reliable readability, long-read distance performance across different handling systems from farm through the supply chain, and durability/retention. 
Allflex also emphasizes having multiple applicator styles available so you can match the tool to your tagging volume and preference. 

Allflex, NLIS, and what “compliance” actually means on-farm

NLIS is Australia’s livestock identification and traceability system for cattle, sheep, and goats, designed to support biosecurity and food safety and provide value in global markets. 
Integrity Systems explains that lifetime traceability depends on (1) animals being identified with a visual or electronic tag/device, (2) locations being identified by PIC, and (3) movements being recorded in the NLIS database. 

For cattle movements, Integrity Systems guidance also notes cattle must be identified with an NLIS accredited electronic RFID device before being moved off a PIC, and explains the electronic device contains an NLIS ID printed on the outside plus an RFID number in the chip that can be read using a scanner/tag reader. 
It also explains that breeder vs post-breeder tag choice is based on property of birth and tag loss (white vs orange), and that once tagged the device should remain with the animal for life. 

Important: Ordering, PIC registration, movement rules, and compliance timeframes can vary by state/territory. Integrity Systems recommends contacting your state/territory authority for PIC registration, ordering NLIS devices, movement requirements, and compliance guidance. 

 

Readers and scanners

RFID readers help you move from “tagging for compliance” to “tagging for management”—because you can scan IDs faster, reduce transcription errors, and link ID to weights, treatments, offspring, and movements.

Allflex Australia describes its reader range as covering stationary, handheld, and stick readers for different applications. 
Allflex’s AWR250 stick reader is positioned as a tool for reading large numbers of animals and states it can read HDX and FDX‑B transponders, with record storage and data export options. 

Tissue Sampling Units

If you’re doing genetic selection, parentage verification, or certain health testing workflows, tissue sampling can be a cleaner, more repeatable path than older sample types—especially when you want strong sample-to-animal linkage.

Allflex describes its Tissue Sampling Unit (TSU) as a quick and easy DNA sampling method commonly used to collect ear tissue samples from cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and other species. 
Allflex also notes the sample is sealed in a preservative to reduce contamination risk and that TSUs can be paired to matching NLIS/management tags to create an “absolute sample-to-animal linkage.” 

FAQ

Do I need to record anything when I apply tags?
Integrity Systems notes the identification device is one element of traceability; movements and location changes are recorded in the NLIS system, and it can be useful to keep your own records of tag numbers and which animals they were applied to. 

Are there rules about removing or swapping NLIS tags?
Integrity Systems states that once an animal is tagged, the tag should remain with the animal for life and warns it can be an offense to purposefully remove an NLIS tag and apply another one; check your state/territory guidance for how to handle non-functioning devices. 

Which applicator should I choose if I’m tagging a lot of cattle?
Allflex lists multiple applicator options for its cattle RFID tags (UTT3S, UltraMatic, Identiplier). If you’re doing high-volume tagging, Allflex’s UTT3S is positioned as a next-generation applicator with reduced application force and ergonomic design.

Chainsaw Chain 100ft Rolls

Chainsaw Chain 100 Foot Rolls — Bulk Chain Shipped Across Australia

If you're going through chains regularly, a 100 foot chainsaw chain roll is the most cost-effective way to keep your saws running. We stock standard and tungsten carbide chainsaw chain reels in the most common pitch and gauge combinations used across Australia — ready to cut to length for any bar.

100ft rolls suit arborists, farmers, contractors, and anyone running multiple saws or cutting high volumes. Buy once, cut what you need, and pay a fraction of the per-chain cost compared to pre-looped chains.

What's Available in 100ft Chainsaw Chain Rolls

We carry chainsaw chain 100 foot rolls in the pitch and gauge sizes that cover the majority of chainsaws sold in Australia:

  • 3/8" LP (.043" and .050" gauge) — fits most small to mid-range saws including Stihl MS 170, MS 180, and Husqvarna 120, 135
  • 3/8" full (.050" and .063" gauge) — the most popular pitch for mid to large saws like Stihl MS 261, MS 362, MS 461, and Husqvarna 560 XP, 572 XP
  • .325" (.050" and 058 .063" gauge) — common on Husqvarna 440, 450, and Stihl MS 250, MS 251 MS 500i
  • .404" (.063-080 " gauge) — large professional saws including Stihl MS 661, MS 880, and Husqvarna 395 XP

Each 100ft roll contains approximately 1,640 drive links. Available in full chisel and semi chisel cutter profiles depending on the specification.

Not sure what pitch and gauge you need? Use our Chain Finder tool — select your saw model and it'll show the exact specs.

Tungsten Carbide Chainsaw Chain 100ft Rolls

For the hardest cutting conditions, we stock tungsten carbide chainsaw chain in 100 foot rolls. Carbide-tipped cutters stay sharp 8–10 times longer than standard chain — which makes a big difference when you're cutting Australian hardwood, dirty timber, or working in sandy or dusty conditions.

Tungsten carbide chainsaw chain rolls are available in the most common pitch and gauge combinations. If you're already buying chain in bulk, stepping up to carbide means fewer stops to sharpen and more time cutting.

Who Buys Bulk Chainsaw Chain?

A 100ft chainsaw chain reel makes sense if you're:

  • Running multiple chainsaws — cut chains for different bar lengths from the same roll
  • An arborist or tree lopper — going through chains weekly and need to keep costs down
  • A farmer or property owner — cutting firewood, clearing fence lines, or managing timber on a rural block
  • A contractor or council worker — maintaining a fleet of saws across different sites

If you're only replacing a chain once or twice a year, a pre-looped chain is probably easier. But if you're cutting regularly, the savings from bulk chain add up fast.

How to Choose the Right 100ft Chainsaw Chain Roll

Every chainsaw uses a specific combination of pitch, gauge, and drive link count. To order the right 100ft roll, you only need to match the pitch and gauge — you'll cut the chain to the correct number of drive links for your bar length.

Here's how to find your specs:

  1. Check the bar — pitch and gauge are usually stamped on the chainsaw bar near the tip or the mount end
  2. Check the old chain — look for markings on the drive links or cutter teeth
  3. Use our Chain Finder — punch in your saw model and get the specs instantly

You'll also need a chain breaker tool and a spinner/riveter to join the chain once it's cut to length. These are one-time purchases that pay for themselves after your first few chains.
