Abstract

A cap (12) and tube (16) assembly comprising a tube (16) for containing a product and a cap (12) for closing an opening in the tube. The tube (16) has a nozzle (18) at one end with a diaphragm (28) puncturable to provide a discharge opening for dispensing of products. The cap (12) is engageable over the nozzle and has a means for puncturing (32) depending inwardly from the top of the cap and operable upon actuation of the cap (12) relative to the nozzle (18) to puncture the diaphragm (28). Ribs (50) on the interior of the cap snugly embrace the nozzle (18) during axial movement of the cap to ensure alignment of the piercing element (32) with the diaphragm (28) during the piercing operation.
