Abstract

A plastic preform has a base body, and a threaded area disposed on and integrally formed with the base body. An integrally formed annular section extends outwards in a radial direction from the base body, below the threaded area. The annular section has a first surface facing the base body and a second surface facing the threaded area. A marking characteristic of at least one property of the plastic preform is located on a surface section of the plastic preform below the threaded area, in the longitudinal direction of the plastic perform, extending at an angle of non-zero in relation to the longitudinal direction of the plastic preform.
