ABSTRACT:
A metallic convenience closure for a cylindrical container comprising a panel with an endless severing line formed in the panel and defining a central removable portion and a peripheral fixed portion. A part of the fixed portion is adapted for attaching a closure to the end of a container to close the end. A manually graspable pull-tab is attached to the removable portion of the panel and has a nose portion movable upon lifting of the tab into position adjacent the score line for severing the score line. The tab includes a first portion riveted to the removable portion of the panel, a second portion extending radially outwardly toward the score line, and a manual graspable portion integral with the second portion and extending radially inwardly. The removable portion of the panel has a portion thereof deformed adjacent the first portion of the tab for preventing rotation of the tab about the axis of the rivet thereby maintaining registry of the nose portion with the score line during the opening of the convenience closure.
