a threaded cap having a closed top end and an open bottom end, an annular flange extending downwardly from said bottom end of said cap, a barb extending downwardly from said annular flange, said barb substantially having a V-shape defined by sides converging to a point, a stop extending downwardly from said annular flange proximate said barb, a threaded container body having an open top end and a closed bottom end, and a block extending outwardly from said top end of said container body, said block having a front edge and a back edge and forming a V-shaped notch for receiving said barb, said notch including V-shaped sides converging to a nadir, wherein as the bottom end of said cap is threaded onto said top end of said container body to tighten said cap relative to said container body, said barb slides over said block to be received into said notch, said V-shaped sides of said barb abutting said V-shaped sides of said notch, and said back edge of said block abuts against said stop to impede further tightening of said cap relative to said container body. |
