  • Tear-off closure
    Patent number: 3931904
    Abstract: A sheet metal closure is provided which has a tear strip across its skirt and a pull ring below the bottom edge of the skirt and integrally connected to the tear strip to facilitate severance of the score lines which define the tear strip. The pull ring is in the form of a bead which is curled inwardly from the connection of the ring to the tear strip and is adapted to be cammed against the neck of the container below the connection to the tear strip so the end of the tear strip will be partially wrapped around the curled bead when the tab is lifted to initiate severance of the score lines.
