Abstract

The present invention provides a non-strippable, child-proof screw closure for containers, and especially for storage bottles containing cleaning liquids, comprising a pourer arranged on the container having external threads and radially extending stops formed thereon, and a screw cap with catches which can be opened out by the stops. The screw cap has a separate internal threaded piece.
