Packages & Containers - Closure Specifications

Packages and containers must be closed as specified in packaging instructions, drawings, or test reports (except as identified in A28.2.2). Stoppers, corks, or other friction-type closures must be held in place securely, tightly, and effectively.

Screw-type closures on packagings and containers (other than UN specification jerricans), which hold a hazardous liquid, must be secured using pressure-sensitive tape, self-shrinking plastic, wire, or a device designated to keep the cap from loosening; you can use any positive means to prevent the closure from becoming loose, due to vibration, substantial temperature change, and so on.
