1.75 × 1.5 in labels

In metric, 1.75 × 1.5 in is 44 × 38 mm; in everyday terms, a little smaller than a matchbook. Buyers usually put it on a wrap around the standard 0.15 oz lip balm tube (1.95 in round) or the top of a 4 oz candle tin lid. For copy, count on about 9 lines of roughly 25 characters at 8 pt. A full-size UPC-A barcode also fits. Need it the other way round? 1.5 × 1.75 is the same label turned 90°, so it is priced and ordered here.

Artwork checklist

The smallest readable type here is about 7 pt; everything that matters belongs inside 1.625 × 1.375 in. Wrapped jobs: nothing important within 0.1 in of the left and right ends, where the seam lands.

On flat packs allow 2 × 1.75 in. On round containers the 1.75 in side wraps a 0.64 in diameter or larger.

Against 3.5 × 0.75 in you gain 0% more face with 1.75 × 1.5 in – going up to 2.75 × 1 in gives 5% more.
