2.25" MagTag Button Set
The 2.25" MagTag Button Set is a complete no-pin button: every set includes the 2.25" shell, mylar and un-pinned back, plus a MagTag magnet that holds the finished button to a shirt, jacket, hat or lanyard without a pin.
Choose the Single MagTag or the Triple Play. Both attach to the back of the metal button on their own and include an adhesive-backed metal plate for non-metal surfaces. Made for the ABM 2.25" button maker. Sold in packs of 100 sets.

American Standard Sizing — Why It Matters
These parts are built to American Standard 2.25" sizing. A 2.25" button is 57.15 mm; foreign-made machines are built to a rounded 58 mm, and that fraction of a millimeter means American Standard parts do not typically crimp correctly in them. These sets are also not for Badge-a-Minit machines.

Why a MagTag Instead of a Pin
- No holes in the fabric. Silk, knits, uniforms and rentals stay undamaged.
- Safe to hand out. No pin point for students or young children.
- Moves between outfits. Pull it off one shirt and put it on the next.
- Works on non-metal surfaces. The included adhesive plate lets the magnet grab a plastic badge holder, a locker or a desk.
- Same press, same press cycle. The un-pinned back crimps in the ABM 2.25" machine exactly like a pinback.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in each set?
A 2.25" shell, mylar, an un-pinned back with a loose pin, and one MagTag, either the Single or the Triple Play depending on the variant. 100 sets per pack.
Single or Triple Play, which should I choose?
The Single is a .75" round magnet. The Triple Play is a 1/2" x 1 3/4" rectangle with three magnets for a stronger hold on thicker fabric. Both include an adhesive-backed metal plate for non-metal surfaces.
Is this a different button than a pinback set?
No. The shell and mylar are the same as the 2.25" Pinback Button Set; only the back is un-pinned so the MagTag has a flat surface to hold onto. It presses in the ABM 2.25" machine the same way.
Will these work in a 58 mm or Badge-a-Minit machine?
No. These are American Standard 2.25" (57.15 mm) parts for ABM machines. Call (972) 985-5074 if you are not sure what machine you have.
Can I buy the MagTags separately?
Yes. Both the Round MagTag and the MagTag-Triple Play are sold on their own in packs of 25, 50, 100 and 500 in the Magnetic Tags collection.
