<p>Carrier stock (10) for machine application to substantially identical containers (12), such as beverage cans, has a tear-open capability provided by tear-open band segments. Such segments (38), which extend between adjacent containers (12), are divided into half segments (38a, 38b) and have slits (50, 62, 64) and frangible bridges, whereby a tear beginning at a crotch (42) at one edge can propagate through such a half segment (38a, 38b). The slits include slits (50) common to the half segments (38a, 38b) and slits (62, 64) staggered transversely. <IMAGE></p> |
