ABSTRACT:
A method of forming an identification band from a tube with a constant circular cross-section along the majority of its outer circumference. The tube holds an indicia, and the information on the indicia is magnified by the generally circular shape of the tube. The circular shape also minimizes contact between the band and the wearer. Contact is limited to line contact with the skin, and irritation of the skin is reduced by eliminating any edges which may cut or scrape the skin. A method of forming the identification band includes the steps cutting a predetermined length of tube, placing an indicia therein, and completing the assembly by inserting an untapered cylindrical plug into each end of the tube.
