Abstract
A reclosable end cap or closure is provided of the type in which a rotatable disc or cover member is pivotally connected permanently at the center region of the end cap and can be selectively rotated in sliding face-to-face contact to close or unclose openings formed in radially intermediate portions of the end cap. The openings are originally formed as closed, removable, airtight tabs and the rotatable disc is pivoted on a boss upstanding from the center of the end cap to thereby provide a hermetic seal until the closure is first opened, and to provide for reclosability thereafter.
