    Abstract: A molding apparatus for molding a closure device for a container. The closure device may be tethered to the container, and may open and close via a hinged articulation. The closure device includes a cylindrical body comprising hinge-connecting areas with pockets formed in the interior wall and defining an inner surface of the hinge-connecting areas, and hinges extending downwardly from the hinge-connecting areas and positioned at or below a bottom edge of the cylindrical body. The molding apparatus comprises a cavity insert component and a core component that cooperate to form mold surfaces to mold the closure device such that hinges are located below the cap area of the closure device, and hinge-connecting areas formed by projections in the core mold component and recesses in the cavity mold component are located within the cap area are flanked by membranous areas.
