Abstract

The present invention is a container head containing a resilient annular sealing ring projecting from the surface plane of the shoulder of the container head. When the cap is seated on the container head, the resilient annular sealing ring forms a secondary fluid-tight seal between the container head and cap.

Claims

1. A container head with a drip-less seal comprising a shoulder having an annular sealing ring, wherein the annular sealing ring forms a fluid tight seal with the interior surface of a container cap.

2. The container head of claim 1, further comprising a container body.

3. A method for producing a container head with a drip-less seal comprising molding a container head material into a container head with an annular sealing ring integrated into the shoulder thereof thereby producing a container head with a drip-less seal.
