I have a plastic bottle that once held Lipton's green tea.
when I looked at the threads on the bottle it looks like they consist
of segments.
The cap has similar threads.
I'm wondering what the reason for these strange threads?

Can't see the photo without signing up.

So it had a break-off tamper indicator ring at the bottom of the cap?

Maybe to make it easier to push the cap onto the bottle.
