Abstract
A dispensing applicator may include a tubular container configured to contain a fluid. The container may include an inlet end and an outlet end, the container including a head member at the outlet end, the head member including a frangible region. A substantially rigid tongue may extend longitudinally through the frangible region. A fracture anvil may be engaged with the rigid tongue element and configured to fracture the frangible region without entirely separating the tongue from the head member. A cap may be secured to the inlet end of the container. A gasket placed between the inlet end and the cap, and the cap may be configured to deform the gasket such that the gasket fills any void remaining within the container after the container is filled with a predetermined volume of the fluid.
