Abstract

A full panel, easy-open container end closure includes a double-folded band formed in the removable panel adjacent the peripheral score, and an opening tab having a nose portion disposed adjacent the peripheral score and band. The tab is secured to a hinge section defined in the removable panel by a rupturable, bowed, generally U-shaped ancillary score which is disposed with its two ends adjacent the band and tab nose portion. This construction effectively reduces the intial rearward force required to effect panel removal.
