ABSTRACT:
A self-centering container closure includes a locator annulus which extends downwardly from the undersurface of the crown, radially inwardly from a resilient fin. The annulus extends downwardly by a distance greater than the fin and has an outer diameter slightly smaller than that of the inner diameter of the neck of the container with which it is to be used. The annulus assists with centering the closure on the container as the closure is screwed onto the container.
