4 × 1.5 in labels

102 × 38 mm in metric: 4 × 1.5 in is a wide panel with a 2.7:1 ratio offering 6 sq in. Where it fits best: a #10 envelope address block (4.25 × 2.5 in), plus the front of an 8 oz candle tumbler. That is space for about 9 lines of roughly 64 characters at 8 pt – enough for a full-size UPC-A barcode with a line or two above it. Searching for 1.5x4? That is this label rotated; the price is identical.

Where 4 × 1.5 in labels work best

#10 envelope address block

Fills about 56% of a 4.25 × 2.5 in face, with 0.1 in and 0.5 in margins.

Front of an 8 oz candle tumbler

Covers about 41% of the way round a 3.1 in body, so the whole label reads face-on.

Box bands

Run 4 in across a lid and down the sides as a narrow branded band.

Candle warning labels

Under-candle safety text: 9 lines of 64 characters is plenty.

Artwork advice

Set your canvas to 1238 × 488 px, put a 3.875 × 1.375 in guide inside it, and nothing smaller than 7 pt. Print a 100% test and view it from 4 ft – if the name is not clear, enlarge it before adding details.

Fit check: as a front label it needs a flat panel of about 4.25 × 1.75 in; wrapped around a bottle, the 4 in length suits containers from roughly 1.35 in diameter up.

Against 6 × 1 in you gain 0% more face with 4 × 1.5 in; going up to 3.5 × 1.75 in gives 2% more. Going one size bigger costs roughly $0.93 more per thousand.

Questions about 4 × 1.5 in labels

Is 4x1.5 the same as 1.5x4?

Yes – it is one label turned 90°. We list width first (4 in) and height second (1.5 in); on a roll you choose which edge comes off first in the builder, so both orientations use this page and the same price.

What do 1,000 4 × 1.5 in labels cost?

1,000 cost $166.80 – $0.167 a label – while the smallest run (100) is $139.52. The $45.00 artwork setup is charged once.

Can I get 4 × 1.5 in labels on a 1 inch core?

Yes – roughly 2,100 max on 1″ (handheld dispensers), versus 8,000 on the standard 3″ core.

How do I avoid blurry 4 × 1.5 in labels?

Send at least 1,238 × 488 px for raster art – 300 dpi across the 4.125 × 1.625 in bleed area – or a vector PDF.
