摘要

Top cone for an aerosol can, comprising a formed metal sheet extending around a longitudinal central axis, and having a contour that comprises, as seen in longitudinal cross section from the top downward, a top section (14) intended for holding a valve cap, a cone section (16) that is connected to the top section (14) and leading to a countersink section (17) and a flange section (15), which countersink section (17) is essentially U-shaped whereby the outer leg of the essential U-shape, that is the leg being furthest removed from the central axis, is bent away from the central axis to form the flange section (15), and which cone section (16) has a continuously increasing transversal diameter, wherein the top cone comprises strengthening means for strengthening the countersink section (17) against pivoting toward the central axis.
