Abstract

A container and method of adhesive bonding of two telescopic container halves wherein each container half has a cylindrical body, the inner container portion being circumferentially loaded to temporarily reduce its diameter and being forced in centered relation to the outer portion into a bead of adhesive laid in the interior of the outer portion to coat the raw edge on the inner portion, the inner portion shearing through the adhesive without wiping it off from the interior of the inner portion and thereafter the hoop stress on the inner portion being relieved so it springs out and squeezes excess bonding material from between the inner and outer portion and thus obtains a thin film adhesive bond with good stress shear characteristics while holding the film in compression therebetween during curing or setting of the adhesive.
