Abstract
Abstract A tubular container body has a reinforcing bead indented into and circumscribing the container body wall. A plurality of generally longitudinal ribs are formed in the container body wall within the bead indentation. The ribs are formed during formation of the bead by providing a plurality of forming elements which are advanced radially inwardly to engage and indent a portion of the container body wall which defines the bead. Adjacent forming elements, in the fully advanced position of the latter, define indentations in which the aforesaid ribs are formed.
