摘要:
A method of attaching a metal end (7) to a metal container body (6) in order to close an opening in the body, wherein the body (6) has a curled lip at least partially surrounding the opening and the end (7) has an upstanding lip extending at least partially around a periphery thereof. The method comprises locating the end (7) within the body (6) at or near said opening, bringing a curling tool (8) into contact with said upstanding lip of the end (7) and applying a force to that lip, via the curling tool (8), in order to curl the upstanding lip around the curled lip of the body (6) to form interlocking curls.
