The product and method of manufacturing a tab having a rivet island window and adapted to be secured to a container end, including the steps of forming a first dimple at a first end position of the window and a second dimple at a second end position of the window, formed as depressed regions of metal residing outside the central plane of the metal. The method includes punching a first blank in the first dimple and a second blank in the second dimple, and subsequently bending the edge regions around the first and second blank to form a bend of the metal away from the central plane. The central region of the window is formed between and joining the blanks, and a rivet opening is formed, adapted to receive a rivet for staking the tab to a container end. |
