A polymeric container including a base, a body, a finish, finish threads, and a tamper lip. The finish threads are at an outer surface of the finish, and are configured to cooperate with closure threads of a closure to secure the closure to the finish. The tamper lip extends from the outer surface of the finish, and is configured to replace the support flange during handling, and to cooperate with a tamper band of the closure. A recess is below the tamper lip. The recess retains the tamper band below the tamper lip when the closure is removed from cooperation with the finish. A gripper groove between the finish threads, the gripper groove configured to cooperate with a gripper for grasping the finish.

The invention relates to a blow mould for transforming plastic parisons to form plastic containers, having a base part, a first side part and a second side part, wherein, in the assembled state of the blow mould, this base part together with the side parts form a hollow space, within which the plastic parisons can be expanded to form the plastic containers. According to the invention, at least one element of the blow mould has a first fastening section to which a first adapter element can be attached, which adapter element facilitates changing of the blow mould by means of a robot device, wherein this fastening section is formed in such a way that this adapter element can be attached releasably to this fastening section, and wherein this fastening section is formed in such a way that the blow mould can be arranged both with this adapter element and also without this adapter element on a transforming device for transforming plastic parisons to form plastic containers.
