Abstract
A tamper indicating closure has a tamper indicating band which is retained on a container by a container neck flange without the use of a cooperating bead or flange on the tamper indicating band. The retention is accomplished by providing a flexure at the bottom of the cap skirt which permits the band to move outwardly over and under the container flange. The closure can have a tear strip which provides the flexure on the closure.
