Crown closure with curled lower edge

摘要

A crown closure (12) having a curled lower edge is described. The curled crown (12) is typically formed from double reduced steel which is 35% thinner gauge than that used for conventional fluted crowns. The crown is also described in combination with a standard glass bottle. The curl (15) of the crown (12) tucks under the capping bead of the bottle so as to achieve standard pressure requirements. Added benefits of this configuration are not only the concealment of the edge of the closure but also the distinctive appearance of the product.
