Abstract
An insert (1) for a closure provides, in a single component, a gasket function between the end panel (12) of the closure and the end sealing surface (22) of a container neck finish (20), a thread forming feature (3) and a tamper evident band (5). The sealing portion (gasket (2) and thread forming feature (3)) of the insert is formed from soft pliant material so as to provide excellent sealing. The tamper evident band (5) is made from much stiffer material than that of the sealing portion, thereby providing rigidity to the entire component. During assembly the integral tamper evident band (5) thus maintains the insert in a circular and non-twisted shape, ensuring ease of handling of the insert.
