4.5 × 2 in labels
4.5 × 2 in works out to 114 × 51 mm – a little larger than a business card. Buyers usually put it on a wrap around the 2 oz Boston round (5.05 in round) or the front of a 32 oz quart mason jar. That is space for about 12 lines of roughly 73 characters at 8 pt – enough for a full-size UPC-A barcode with a line or two above it. Portrait or landscape, 4.5 × 2 and 2 × 4.5 are one product here.

Popular uses for 4.5 × 2 in labels
2 oz Boston round wrap
Goes 4.5 in of the 5.05 in circumference, leaving a 0.55 in seam; the 2 in height stays under the 2.2 in wall.
Face label: 32 oz quart mason jar
A 3.6 in diameter leaves the 4.5 in face nearly flat to the eye, about 39% of the circumference.
Promotional decals
At 114 × 51 mm it reads from 6 ft; artwork should be 1388 × 638 px.
Bag and pouch fronts
Stock bags plus 114 × 51 mm labels replace custom-printed pouches until volumes grow.
Artwork advice
Work on a 1388 × 638 px file with a 4.375 × 1.875 in inner guide; below 8 pt, text blurs at arm's length. Wrapped jobs: nothing important within 0.25 in of the left and right ends, where the seam lands.
A 4.75 × 2.25 in flat panel is ideal; for wraps pick containers around 1.51 in diameter or bigger for the 4.5 in length.
Area-wise 4.5 × 2 in beats 6 × 1.5 in by 0%, while 4 × 2.25 in offers another 0%.

FAQ
Is 4.5x2 the same as 2x4.5?
Yes – it is one label turned 90°. We list width first (4.5 in) and height second (2 in); on a roll you choose which edge comes off first in the builder, so both orientations use this page and the same price.

1,000 cost $189.27 – $0.189 a label – while the smallest run (100) is $141.54. The $45.00 artwork setup is charged once.
How many 4.5 × 2 in labels fit on one roll?
Up to about 6,100 on a 3″ core or 1,600 on a 1″ core. Fewer per roll costs the same.

PDF, AI, EPS, SVG, PNG or JPG. For raster files use 1,388 × 638 px (300 dpi), which matches the 4.625 × 2.125 in bleed size.
