Abstract
The nozzle for a pressurized container is mounted to the container for shipment and sale by a hook member. The hook member has a hook portion that mounts to the valve cup rim or container rim. An attachment leg connects the hook portion to the nozzle. The hook portion has a slip-fit relationship to the rim on which it is placed. The wall of the hook portion that rests along the outside of the rim is thinner than is the wall that rests along the inside of the rim. This arrangement accommodates the over-cap without displacement or flaring of the nozzle.
