Abstract
A closure includes a top wall portion, an annular skirt portion, a continuous plug seal, a top sealing member and a top stop. The skirt portion, the plug seal and the top stop depend from the top wall portion. The top sealing member is located between the plug seal and the skirt portion. The top stop is located between the plug seal and the skirt portion. The sealing member extends to and contacts a top surface, a top portion of the inner radius/corner or the outer radius/corner of the finish of the container when the closure and the container are in mating engagement with each other at an atmospheric internal pressure. At higher internal pressures, the top sealing member and the top stop are spaced from and located above the top surface of the finish.
