Abstract

Closure caps (10) having a tamper-evident band (20). The tamper-evident band (20) includes an angled top surface (34) and an outer surface with notch (74) therein. The closure cap (10) allows for reduction in the energy required for application to the container and reduced likelihood of premature bridge breakage.
