unbanded

Lacking any bands

Unbanded means lacking a band or bands.

The term appears most often in technical contexts: an unbanded bird hasn't been fitted with a tracking band, unbanded rock shows no visible striations, an unbanded cigar has no paper ring identifying its maker.

The word simply negates whatever sense of band applies in context.
