ABSTRACT:
A plastic container and lid both of resilient material with the container having spaced thread segments below its upper edge and the lid having a central section from which extends an outer sealing section with a curved upwardly sloping inner wall and thread segments on the inside of a skirt wall extending downwardly from the sealing section. Threading of the lid onto the container in a downward direction brings the inner periphery of the container upper edge into an increased contact with the lid sealing section curved upwardly sloping inner wall and the latter also exerts an outward radial force on the container wall to enhance the sealing action and which also tightens the engagement between the lid skirt and container wall in the areas of their mating threads.
