A closure device includes a top wall, a skirt depending from the top wall, a nd a plurality of pads arranged circumferentially on the top wall, the pads extending into a space formed by the top wall and the skirt, the spaced pads configured to vent gas between adjacent pairs of pads during molding of a liner material against the top wall. A method of forming a liner in a closur e device includes applying a moldable material to a top wall of the closure device, engaging a face of a punch of a liner-molding device with pads arranged on the top wall, the pads extending into a spaced formed by the top wall and a skirt depending from the top wall, compressing the moldable material by the punch against the top wall to form the liner, and venting ga s between adjacent pairs of pads during the compressing step.
