178 × 51 mm in metric: 7 × 2 in is a slim strip about 3.5 times as long as it is tall offering 14 sq in.

Who orders 7 × 2 in labels
Full wrap: 12 oz beer bottle
7 in around a 7.55 in body is a near-complete wrap; keep barcodes away from the 0.55 in seam.
Half-dozen cupcake box top label
Leaves 0.25 in at the sides and 1.5 in top and bottom on a 7.5 × 5 in surface.
Bag and pouch fronts
Stock bags plus 178 × 51 mm labels replace custom-printed pouches until volumes grow.
Gift box tops
A 178 × 51 mm label brands an 8 × 3 in box lid with a margin all round.
Artwork checklist
Work on a 2138 × 638 px file with a 6.875 × 1.875 in inner guide; below 8 pt, text blurs at arm's length. Wrapped jobs: nothing important within 0.4 in of the left and right ends, where the seam lands.
A 7.25 × 2.25 in flat panel is ideal; for wraps pick containers around 2.31 in diameter or bigger for the 7 in length.
7 × 2 in gives you 0% more printable area than 8 × 1.75 in, while 4.5 × 3.25 in has 4% more again. 4.5 × 3.25 in adds around $2.94 to a 1,000-label order.

Your 7 × 2 in questions answered
Will a 7 × 2 in label fit a 12 oz beer bottle?
Usually yes. A typical 12 oz beer bottle is about 2.4 in across (7.55 in around) with roughly 3.6 in of straight wall. 7 in around and 2 in tall fits that space; measure your own container, because bottle makers vary by a few millimetres.
What is the price of 7 × 2 in labels?
Today's engine price: 100 roll labels $143.74, 1,000 labels $212.73, roughly $0.213 apiece. Setup is $45.00 per artwork.
How many rolls will my 7 × 2 in order come on?
Each 3″-core roll holds about 6,100 and each 1″-core roll about 1,600, so divide your quantity by that to estimate the number of rolls.
Do 7 × 2 in labels need bleed?
Yes – add 1/16″ on each side for 7.125 × 2.125 in overall (2,138 × 638 px at 300 dpi) and keep text inside the cut line.
