5 × 1.25 in labels
A 5 × 1.25 in label (127 × 32 mm) is a slim strip about 4 times as long as it is tall, with 6.25 sq in of printable face. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits a wrap around the 5 oz woozy hot sauce bottle (5.5 in round) and a 4 × 9 in cello treat bag (3.75 × 6 in). Layout budget: about 7 lines of roughly 82 characters at 8 pt; with a UPC-A barcode at 80% scale the rest of the face stays usable. Portrait or landscape, 5 × 1.25 and 1.25 × 5 are one product here.

Where 5 × 1.25 in labels work best
5 oz woozy hot sauce bottle wrap
Goes 5 in of the 5.5 in circumference, leaving a 0.5 in seam; the 1.25 in height stays under the 2.75 in wall.
4 × 9 in cello treat bag label
Leaves 0.5 in at the sides and 1.25 in top and bottom on a 3.75 × 6 in surface.
Logo stickers
6.2 sq in shows a logo plus a web address readable from about 3 ft.
Main product label
Name, net quantity and maker in 7 lines – the whole front panel on 127 × 32 mm.
Before you design
Work on a 1538 × 412 px file with a 4.875 × 1.125 in inner guide; below 7 pt, text blurs at arm's length. Place the barcode at least 0.3 in from either end – on the 5 oz woozy hot sauce bottle the seam lands there.
Flat surfaces should measure 5.25 × 1.5 in or more. Used as a wrap, 5 in covers a bottle of about 1.67 in diameter almost completely.
Compared with 2.75 × 2.25 in, 5 × 1.25 in has 1% more room, while the next step, 4.25 × 1.5 in, adds 2%. 4.25 × 1.5 in adds around $0.93 to a 1,000-label order.

Frequently asked
Will a 5 × 1.25 in label fit a 5 oz woozy hot sauce bottle?
In most cases. Common 5 oz woozy hot sauce bottles measure near 1.75 in in diameter, so the circumference is 5.5 in, and the straight wall is about 2.75 in tall. This label (5 × 1.25 in) sits within that – still, check your supplier's drawing.
How much do 5 × 1.25 in labels cost?
$139.68 for 100 and $168.67 for 1,000 ($0.169 each) on matte white paper today, plus $45.00 setup once per design.
What is the maximum roll size for 5 × 1.25 in labels?
A full 3″-core roll carries around 9,400; small 1″ cores about 2,500. Bigger orders ship on several rolls.
What resolution is needed for 5 × 1.25 in labels?
300 dpi: 1,538 × 413 px. That covers the 5.125 × 1.375 in bleed area; vector PDF or SVG avoids resolution worries altogether.
