Abstract
The invention relates to a quick-fastening applicator closure comprising a cap-side closure member and a container-side closure member which are twisted relative to one another in order to fix the applicator on the storage container associated with it. A multi-start, preferably double-start, short-threaded portion is provided on at least one of the closure members, whose threads are designed in such a way that the two closure members can be brought from a position in which the threads of the short threaded portion grip for the first time into a fully closed position with a rotary movement less than a ⅜ rotation relative to one another, with additional retaining elements being provided which hold the two closure members firmly against each other in addition to the thread friction that is present anyway, once they have reached their fully closed position.
