Abstract
The flag label for attachment around an elongated object has a pair of faces oppositely facing from one another surrounded by a peripheral edge, One of the pair of faces is bifurcated into uneven portions at a line. Those uneven portions include an adhesive-bearing portion having adhesive received thereon and further include a non-adhesive bearing portion not having adhesive thereon. The non-adhesive bearing portion may be larger in surface area than the adhesive bearing portion such that, when folded onto one another, there is little to no possibility that adhesive remains exposed about the periphery of joining due to imperfect alignment of the edges of the two contacting portions.
Claims17
A flag label for attachment around an elongated object, the flag label comprising a pair of faces oppositely facing from one another surrounded by a peripheral edge in which one of the pair of faces is bifurcated into uneven portions at a line including an adhesive bearing portion having adhesive received thereon which is exposed up to the line of bifurcation and further including a non-adhesive bearing portion not having adhesive exposed thereon up to the line of bifurcation, wherein the non-adhesive bearing portion not having adhesive exposed comprises a deadened adhesive in which the deadened adhesive is an adhesive upon which an ink coating is applied to deaden the adhesive, and further wherein a width of the adhesive bearing portion of the flag label as measured in a direction parallel to the line of bifurcation decreases as the width is measured at positions further from the line of bifurcation.
