Abstract:
This application describes and illustrates a method of making an aerosol valve tip and stem assembly and the interlocked assembly. The interlocked assembly is comprised of a tip and stem, one being a hard material defining a recess or notch, and the other being of a soft cold-flowable material that is caused to coldflow into the notch when the two members are telescopically assembled. When the members are assembled, the soft cold-flowable material cold-flows into the notch to interlock the members and to make disassembly thereof difficult.
