capless

Head covering missing

Without a cap or lid.

A capless pen lacks a removable cover for its tip—some retract instead, others simply go without.

Capless bottles have flip-tops or pumps rather than screw-on caps.

The word appears in product descriptions and casual speech: The capless design makes it easier to use one-handed.
