Gosto de tampas de fechamento hermético. Tampas herméticas acho que não. Não são as tampas que são herméticas, é o fechamento, mas eu poderia estar errado.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Muito bom. Acho que ficaria "tampas de fechamento hermético" ou "tampas herméticas", certo? Vou só aguardar outras opiniões, conforme as recomendações do Kudoz, mas sua resposta foi muito boa. Obrigado.
