Glass packaging - Screw finishes - Depressed threads

This European Standard specifies the profiles of thread for all the screw deck finishes for metallic, plastic and metallo-plastic closures.
The depressed threads could be used on continuous thread finishes to reduce the thread depth at and adjacent to the mould parting line.
Depressed threads are only used on > 28 mm Roll-On Pilferproof (ROPP) type finishes where the closure is formed on the neck finish.

Verpackungen aus Glas - Schraubmundstücke - Abgeflachte Gewinde

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Gewindeprofile für alle Schraubmundstücke für Metall-, Kunststoff- und Metall-Kunststoff-Verschlüsse fest.
Die abgeflachten Gewinde könnten für Mundstücke mit durchgehendem Gewinde verwendet werden, um die Gewindetiefe an und neben der Formennaht zu verringern.
Abgeflachte Gewinde werden nur bei ≥ 28 mm Roll-On Pilferproof (ROPP)-Mundstücken verwendet, wobei der Verschluss auf das Mundstück geformt wird.

Emballage en verre - Bagues à vis - Depression de filet

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les profils de filets des bagues de col à vis destinées à recevoir des capsules en métal, en plastique ou des capsules constituées de métal et de plastique.
La dépression des filets peut être utilisée sur des bagues à filets continus pour réduire la profondeur de filet au niveau du joint de moule.
Les dépressions de filet ne sont utilisées que sur des bagues recevant des capsules aluminium à vis, à témoin d’effraction, ≥ 28 mm, lorsque la capsule est formée sur la bague.

Steklena embalaža - Grla z navojem - Ploščati navoj

Ta dokument določa profile za vse obloge navoja grla za kovinska, plastična in kovinskoplastična zapirala. Ploščate navoje je mogoče uporabljati na neprekinjenih navojih za zmanjšanje globine navoja na delilni črti pri vlivanju in ob njej.

Overview - EN 16292:2013, Glass packaging - Screw finishes - Depressed threads

EN 16292:2013 is a European Standard from CEN that defines the thread profile requirements for depressed threads used on screw neck finishes of glass packaging. It covers metallic, plastic and metallo-plastic closures and explains when and how a shallow depression in the thread may be applied to continuous thread finishes. The standard is based on CE.T.I.E. guidance (DT 22.00) and was approved in 2013.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope
    • Applies to screw neck finishes where closures are formed on the neck finish, specifically ≥ 28 mm Roll‑On Pilferproof (ROPP) type finishes.
  • Purpose
    • Depressed threads reduce the risk that a mould parting line or seam will scrape internal lacquers or remove internal material from formed metal or plastic closures.
  • Geometry limits
    • The depressed arc (β) is generally limited to a maximum of 30°, centrally placed on the mould parting line.
    • The depression depth normally does not exceed 0.30 mm.
  • Thread start/finish recommendation
    • It is recommended that thread start and finish points are at least 45° away from the mould parting line.
  • Tolerances
    • Minimum tolerances for thread diameter do not apply within the depressed area (i.e., the depressed segment is exempt from standard diameter tolerance rules).
  • Illustration and reference
    • The standard provides a figure showing depression depth (a), mould parting line (b), cutter radius and arc (β).

Applications - who uses EN 16292:2013

  • Closure designers and mould/tooling engineers specifying screw finishes for glass bottles, jars and pots.
  • Packaging engineers evaluating compatibility between ROPP closures and glass neck finishes.
  • Manufacturers of metallic, plastic and metallo‑plastic closures concerned with internal lacquer integrity and seal performance.
  • Quality assurance teams and brand owners seeking standardized thread profiles to reduce production defects and preserve product safety.
  • Regulatory or procurement professionals referencing European standards for contract specifications and conformity.

Related standards and references

  • EN 16292:2013 is based on CE.T.I.E. data sheet DT 22.00 (Depressed threads).
  • For a complete packaging specification set, users should consult other CEN/TC 261 standards covering screw finishes, ROPP closures and glass packaging dimensions (see national standards bodies or the CEN catalogue).
