PET finish 37/32-17,5-2/3,63

Scope of application

Specifications and dimensions of the 38 mm screw finish with two (2) thread starts and a 17.55 mm height for flat waters and non carbonated beverages. This finish can be used for aseptic filling and filling with introduction of nitrogen (the internal overpressure should not exceed 1 bar). This finish is designed to take a tamper-evident plastic closure only. During first opening, the tamper evident band will separate from the closure shell and stay on a one way bottle neck or like bottles in the returnable market, the tamper evident band will tear but will remain connected to the closure shell.
This finish is for non-crystallized necks only.
