It is common for soymilk and orange juice containers to be approximately 1.75 liters

You remove a plastic cap by unscrewing it

After that there is a plastic ring you pull on attached to another thing of plastic

I am wondering how much variation there is in the locatipn of where the ring is attached

The ring could be attached at any location under the lid you unscrew

If you pull in the wrong direction or maybe there is a defective ring then the ring breaks without opening the container
