swing top

Pivoting bottle closure

A swing top is a hinged closure on a bottle, consisting of a stopper attached to a wire mechanism that clamps against the bottle's lip to create an airtight seal.

Common on beer bottles and vintage-style containers: The swing top snapped shut with a satisfying click.

Also called a flip top or bail closure.
