Plastic bottle threads

Jul 15, 2005 5 Replies

Hello All,



I was wondering if anyone had any plasic bottle thread knowlage. I'm trying to find some information on a specific type of thread. For example a Skippy peanut butter jar has a single lead thread going appoxamatly 405 degrees (slight overlap), and has a marking "CC4". I'm assuming (by the looks of the jar) that the threaded part of the blowmold can be inserted into many different types of jars, and that the CC4 designation refers to the type and configuration of the thread. If anyone can point my to a good surce to be able to get this information, I would be very greatful. BTW, the designation that I'm looking for is "3D", and is 6 lead 1/4 turn thread.



TIA, Muggs

"Closure manufacturers association" Have fun looking for the correct bottle top.

Perhaps a phone call to them might get you straight to the correct standard.

Thanks Jonathan, That's the website that I had tried to think of. I think The Other Paul (TOP) mentioned it one time.

Thanks again. I think I'll give them a call.

I wonder if someone else put the pages "together" in a more readable pdf format?

Probably not.
