  2. Aluminium joining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_joining

    Aluminium alloys are often used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, low cost, high thermal and electrical conductivity.There are a variety of techniques to join aluminium including mechanical fasteners, welding, adhesive bonding, brazing, soldering and friction stir welding (FSW), etc. Various techniques are used based on the cost and strength required for the joint.

  3. Glass-to-metal seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass-to-metal_seal

    Uranium glass used as lead-in seals in a vacuum capacitor. Glass-to-metal seals are a type of mechanical seal which joins glass and metal surfaces. They are very important elements in the construction of vacuum tubes, electric discharge tubes, incandescent light bulbs, glass-encapsulated semiconductor diodes, reed switches, glass windows in metal cases, and metal or ceramic packages of ...

  4. Induction sealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_sealing

    Induction sealing also offers advantages when sealing to glass: Using a conduction sealer to seal a simple foil structure to glass gives no tolerance or compressibility to allow for any irregularity in the glass surface finish. With an induction sealer, the contact face can be of a compressible material, ensuring a perfect bond each time.

    An aluminum bottle with a threaded aluminum screw closure. A closure is a device used to close or seal a container such as a bottle, jug, jar, tube, or can. A closure may be a cap, cover, lid, plug, liner, or the like. [1] The part of the container to which the closure is applied is called the finish. [2]

  6. Tamper-evident band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamper-evident_band

    When an aluminum or plastic bottle cap has an integral band, it is usually connected by thin bridges. They can be molded along with the cap or slit afterwards. [1] When unscrewing the cap, the frangible ring breaks: the ring can separate from the cap, and two separate pieces remain, the sealing piece and the leftover ring; or the broken ring can form a "pigtail" still attached to the cap.

  8. Hermetic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermetic_seal

    A hermetic seal is any type of sealing that makes a given object airtight (preventing the passage of air, oxygen, or other gases).The term originally applied to airtight glass containers but, as technology advanced, it applied to a larger category of materials, including metals, rubber, and plastics.

  9. Double seam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_seam

    A double seam is a canning process for sealing a tin can by mechanically interlocking the can body and a can end (or lid). Originally, the can end was soldered or welded onto the can body after the can was filled. [1] However, this introduced a variety of issues, such as foreign contaminants (including lead and other harmful heavy metals).
