Abstract
A data tag(1) for a writing implement (8) fitted with a clip (7). The clip has a longitudinal recess in its underside facing the writing implement (8). The tag is a strip of material (1) with a tab (2). The tab is insertable into the clearance between the writing implement (8) and the clip (7). The tab (2) is fitted at its top side facing the clip (7) with a folded and raised lip (5) which, in the insertion mode of the tab (2), snaps into the recess (11) and rests against the clip (7) in a direction opposite that of insertion. A resting edge (3, 4) is present on each side of the tab (2) and can be made to abut both the affixing end (10) of the clip (7) and the clip bead resting against the writing implement (8) for the purpose of limiting depth of insertion of the tab (2).
