Abstract

The seal for a receptacle, especially a tube, has an aiding device for opening the sealed outlet opening, and is associated with the upper section of the seal. The aiding device is transferable from a first into a second position by means of a guiding device in the form of a protrusion, as a result of which a force can be applied to the sealing element, which opens the sealed outlet opening. An independent claim is included for a receptacle, especially a tube, which is formed for application of the seal.
