Abstract
Metal closure components and methods for making the same are provided. The closures may be formed from a metal sheet having a pre-formed polymer film adhered on at least one face. A circular blank may be cut from the sheet, such that the blank may have a circular 'raw' cut edge unprotected by the polymer film. The metal blank may then be formed such that the cut edged may be embedded into the film.
