Abstract:
Disclosed is a metal bottle seal that is disposed on the curl of the metal bottle. The bottle seal may be held in place by crimping of the curl. In addition, adhesive may be used to hold the bottle seal on the curl. Adhesives can be used that fill discontinuities that may exist in the curl as a result of substantial drawing and ironing of the metal. Further, the metal bottle seal can be made of a material or laminated with a material that is soft enough to fill the discontinuities. The seal can be preformed as a continuous annulus for easy application to the top of the metal bottle. The metal bottle seal can also be used in conjunction with a cap seal to ensure an adequate and reliable seal.

Claim (Index 20):
A cap structured to cooperate with a metal bottle, said metal bottle comprising a first end defining an opening and having a first diameter, a second end opposite and distal the first end and having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, and a neck portion extending from the first end toward the second end, the first end including a curl having third diameter, said neck portion having an interior and an exterior, said neck portion being threaded only on the interior, said cap comprising:\n a distal portion; a sealing element provided on the distal portion and being structured to seal the opening of the first end of said metal; and a protrusion extending from said distal portion, said protrusion having a threaded portion having a fourth diameter less than the third diameter of said curl, wherein said threaded portion of said protrusion extends from said distal portion into, and threadably engages, said interior of said neck portion.
