A closure for use on a container having an externally threaded neck is disclosed wherein an inner surface of a downwardly depending skirt portion of the closure cap includes a helical thread having a flat upper surface with a lower thread profile having a first depth greater than an upper thread profile of a second depth. The helical thread of the closure tapers into the sidewalk of the closure skirt. The closure is provided with a seal integral with the inner surface of the skirt, spaced from a top wall of the closure, and retained at a lowermost point along the downwardly depending skirt by a bead.

1. A closure comprising:a top wall; a skirt surrounding said top wall and extending downwardly therefrom with a terminating edge opposite said top wall defining an open bottom end; a bead integral with an inner surface of said skirt and spaced from said top wall; and, a helical thread having a substantially flat upper thread surface circumscribing said inner surface of said skirt, said thread having a lower thread profile end of a first horizontal depth and an upper thread profile end of a second horizontal depth, said first horizontal depth being greater than said second horizontal depth, said upper thread profile extending downwardly from said non-back-off bead, said lower thread profile end being nearer said open bottom end than said upper thread profile end. 2. The closure of claim 1, including a seal on the inner surface of said top wall.3. The closure of claim 2, said seal being positioned between said top wall and said bead.4. The closure of claim 2, said seal being disc-shaped.5. The closure of claim 2, said seal being liner less.6. The closure of claim 1, said thread being tapered to a second horizontal depth terminating coincident to said inner surface of said skirt prior to reaching said bead.7. The closure of claim 6, said second horizontal depth further tapering flush with said inner surface of said skirt.8. The closure of claim 7, said second horizontal depth ending at a point coincident with a bead disposed between said top wall and said second horizontal depth.9. The closure of claim 1, wherein said first horizontal depth is about 0.0475 inches and said second horizontal depth is about 0.01 inches.10. The closure of claim 9, said thread being further tapered to a nominal horizontal depth terminating prior to reaching said bead.11. The closure of claim 10, said thread diminishing in horizontal depth between said first and second horizontal depths.12. The closure of claim 9, said thread diminishing in horizontal depth over an arc of between 45° and 120° from said upper thread profile end.13. The closure of claim 9, said thread diminishing in horizontal depth over a 90° arc from said upper thread profile end.14. A closure comprising:a top wail and skirt depending from said top wall; a bead integral with an inner surface of said skirt and spaced from said top wall; and, a helical thread having a substantially flat upper thread surface, a lower thread end of a first horizontal depth and an upper thread end of a second horizontal depth, said first horizontal depth being greater than said second horizontal depth, said upper thread end of said thread extending downwardly from said bead, and being closer to said top wall than said lower thread end. 15. The closure of claim 14, said thread being tapered to a horizontal depth terminating coincident to said inner surface of said skirt prior to reaching said bead.16. The closure of claim 14, said thread being variable in horizontal depth over an are of about 90° of said upper thread portion end.17. The closure of claim 14, wherein a seal is located between said bead and said top wall.18. A closure comprising:a top wall and an annular skirt depending from said top wall; a bead integral with an inner surface of said skirt and spaced from said top wall; a helical thread having a substantially flat upper thread surface, a lower thread profile end of a first horizontal depth and an upper thread profile end of a second horizontal depth, said upper thread profile end being nearer said top wall than said lower thread profile end, said first horizontal depth being greater than said second horizontal depth, said upper profile extending downwardly from said bead and said thread having a flat upper surface; said thread being tapered to a horizontal depth terminating coincident to said inner surface of said skirt prior to reaching said bead; and, said thread being variable in horizontal depth over an arc of between 45° and 120° from said upper thread profile end. 19. The closure of claim 18, wherein a scald is located between said bead and said top wall.20. A closure, comprising:a circular top wall arid skirt depending therefrom; a helical thread circumscribing an inner surface of said skirt and having a flat upper surface along its entire length, said flat upper surface being at an angle of about 90° to said skirt; said helical thread having a lower profile end with a first horizontal depth of about 0.0475 inches and an upper profile of a second horizontal depth of about 0.01 inch, said upper thread profile being closer said top wall than said lower thread profile end; said first horizontal depth being greater than said second horizontal depth such that said upper profile tapers into said skirt sidewalk from said second horizontal depth to a third horizontal depth of about 0 (zero) inches.
