UV buttons

UV Buttons are precision-made badge components designed exclusively for UV printing systems. At IDGAMAX, we offer pre-assembled buttons for faster production and minimal manual handling for businesses creating customized promotional items at scale.

Each button has a durable front surface optimized for high-resolution printing. UV-curable inks bond to the surface using ultraviolet rays to create premium relief finishes. 

These buttons have a spring-loaded keeper mechanism to secure the backing to the printed surface. Its adjustable 5° tilt feature allows simple attachment to curved or uneven surfaces, ideal for water bottles, fabric items, and backpacks.

Different backing options include needles with rounded edges for smooth insertion, while magnets and mirrors use low-profile designs to prevent snagging when worn. Bottle openers are also a backing option made with end-user comfort in mind.

Technology behind UV buttons

Our UV Buttons use Ultraglide bushing technology engineered to connect the badge face and backing. This innovation was originally developed in the archery industry to enhance precision and reduce wear in mechanical components. The same principle ensures badge components are durable and aligned with fewer adjustments.

The buttons can achieve a relief effect, increasing their visual appeal and professional texture and feel. The UV printing process is also eco-conscious, using solvent-free inks that reduce waste and minimize environmental impact.

Choosing the right UV button for your needs

Start by considering the size of the UV button. IDGAMAX offers a range from 25 mm to 75 mm based on the visual space you need. Smaller buttons are great for compact items like lanyards, while larger sizes are for enhanced visibility in logos, names, or bold graphics.

The backside component is essential in selection from needle backs, magnets, mirrors, or bottle openers. Think about the finish, which impacts the final products' tactile and visual appeal. Our UV printing system provides an optimal or premium finish, adding distinctive quality to your buttons. Check compatibility with existing UV printing machines and the IDGAMAX system.

While the term is referring to badge components, it appears in archery where one ensures the models are adjustable for better arrow flight and shot consistency. Their bow compatibility should match the current riser setup.

Understanding size options

The available sizes for UV-resistant buttons at IDGAMAX are 25 mm, 31 mm, 38 mm, 44 mm, 50 mm, 59 mm, and 75 mm. The measurements refer to the diameter of the circular badge. The smaller sizes are for subtle branding, lapel pins, or badges with enough surface area for a logo or short text.

The medium sizes are the most popular, given their use in promotional giveaways, event badges, and general customization. The 59 mm in particular is a fan favourite for magnet button supplies and bottle openers. The large sizes have prominent displays with detailed graphics, and detailed images, and the badge stands out significantly on these surfaces.

Those with smaller hands may prefer the small sizes held in the hand. Users who prefer a stronger grip or need visually dominant pieces may opt for larger badges. Medium sizes are suitable for wearable use on lanyards or jackets since they do not interfere with movement.
