Removable closures attach to containers by two principal methods: thread engagement and friction engagement ... Three closure types provide a seal through thread engagement: continuous thread (CT), lug, and roll-on caps. CT designs attain a seal through the attachment of a continuously threaded closure to a compatibly threaded container neck ... Today the CT design is manufactured in plastic, tin-free steel, tin plate, and aluminum ... All CT closures are designated by diameter as measured in mm followed by the finish series number. A closure with the designation number "22-400" refers to a closure with an inside diameter of 22 mm designed in the 400 finish of a shallow continuous thread.  2, record 1, English, - continuous%20thread%20closure
