What are the standard diameters for a 12oz and 16oz hot coffee cup sleeve?

Most standard 12oz and 16oz paper hot cups share a 90mm rim diameter. In the middle grip zone where the sleeve sits, the Top Sleeve Diameter is typically 82mm, the Bottom Sleeve Diameter is 70mm, and the vertical sleeve height is 60mm to 64mm.

Why does this generator use Length and Width for Top and Bottom Cup Diameters?

To keep URL parameters unified across all tools (?l=82&w=70&h=62), Length (L) maps to the Upper Grip Diameter (D_top), Width (W) maps to the Lower Grip Diameter (D_bottom), and Height (H) maps to the Vertical Sleeve Band Height.

Does the coffee cup sleeve template require glue or does it have a locking tab?

Our dieline includes both a glue lap zone AND an integrated die-cut interlocking tab-and-slot so you can assemble small custom runs by hand without hot glue.

What happens if D_top and D_bottom are nearly equal?

If the cup wall has less than a 2mm taper, our math engine automatically switches from conical apex projection to a cylindrical wrap band to prevent infinite radius overflow.

Structural Geometry & Material Reference (Conical Frustum Radial Development / ECMA Cup Jacket)

A paper coffee cup is not a cylinder—it is a truncated mathematical cone (frustum). If you wrap a flat rectangular strip around a tapered cup, it gaps at the bottom and slips off. To sit flush against the cup wall, a coffee cup sleeve must be unfolded radially as an annular sector computed from the cup's Top Diameter (D_top), Bottom Diameter (D_bottom), and Vertical Sleeve Height (H). Our parametric generator solves the exact cone apex radii (R_outer and R_inner) and sector angle (theta) to generate a 1:1 curved dieline with an interlocking tab-and-slot closure or glue lap.

Slant Wall Length (S_slant)

S_slant = sqrt( H^2 + ((D_top - D_bottom) / 2)^2 )

Computes the true diagonal slant height along the tapered cup wall.

Unfolded Outer Cone Radius (R_outer)

R_outer = (D_top * S_slant) / (D_top - D_bottom)

Determines the exact radius of the upper curved cut arc from the virtual cone apex.

Unfolded Sector Angle (Theta_radians)

Theta = (pi * D_top) / R_outer

Calculates the exact angular sweep in radians so the sleeve circumference matches the cup taper.
