A latching mechanism for containers includes a catch member having a tongue on a container lid, for engaging an aligned nub on a container. The catch member includes a relaxation area, formed of an opening, proximate to the tongue. The relaxation area allows the catch member to retain its original shape, inhibiting it from softening or wearing out, and proving it with long life, such that the catch member is able to maintain the frictional engagement over numerous uses and for long time periods.
