ABSTRACT:
A tank cap with free travel to close a fuel tank of a motor vehicle can be screwed on a filler neck of the fuel tank so that it seals via rotational movement around a rotational axis and features a closure body having a transverse support and a cap body having a transverse support. One of the supports includes a contact surface and a raised outer area that serves as a limit stop. The cap body is pivoted for rotational movement relative to the closure body through a free travel angle α that is limited by the limit stop.
