A long long time ago (.. I can still remember ♫) there were these old bottle caps. My parents still have 2 or 3 at home from soviet times. They look kinda like this:

What are those called? Ar there some keywords to find them? It took me at least 3- minutes to even find this image (and it was in middle of completely unrelated images down on something like the third image-search page). Or, the best option, where can I buy a box of these?

P.S. I know that the image is from "flip-top" wikipedia page, but what I am looking for is a cap, that is independent from the bottle itself.

Found what I was looking for: WESTMARK 3 Flaschenverschlüsse, Flaschenstöpsel mit Hebel und Gummidichtung, 40 x 60 x 15 mm, farblich sortiert.

Westmark 3

Now I only need to order a box of these.

In the USA you can find this type of cap at most homebrew shops. These originated in Holland but now are popular for many breweries around the world. Here are the caps

  • Those require special bottles, where the lip of the bottle has two indentations, where those hinges go in. I was aiming at something I can use one a "normal bottle". – tereško Jan 29 '18 at 17:42
  • See my answer to this question if you don't care about the way you seal the bottle. https://alcohol.stackexchange.com/questions/7003/can-i-re-cork-a-beer-bottle – farmersteve Jan 29 '18 at 21:16
