tear off seal and cap


Explanation:
Looking at this document, it indicates that the 'capsula a strappo' is in contact with the fluid, while the 'sovracapsula' is the firm lid above the seal not in contact with the fluid. You may need a more specific term, this is a best guess.

Best of luck.

Example sentence(s):
  • "Sciroppo - Flacone in vetro ambrato, chiuso con capsula in polipropilene a strappo con guarnizione in polieti lene a bassa densità, a contatto con il prodotto. Sulla capsula viene posta una sovracapsula in polipropilene (non a contatto con il prodotto).
