It is adapted when displaced axially in the first direction to cooperatively engage with the aperture sidewall so as to form a fluid-tight seal. The insert is adapted when displaced axially in the second direction to permit the passage of liquid through the aperture. The cap is adapted to be retained in fluid-tight sealing relationship with a liquid container by a screw-thread.
