One or more embodiments of the present disclosure include a closure device, a method of making the closure device and a system that includes the closure device for closing an opening in a body lumen. The closure device includes an intravascular anchor for positioning in the body lumen, a suture coupled to the intravascular anchor, the suture to pass through the opening in the body lumen, a fastener joined to the suture, where the fastener moves longitudinally along the suture, and a plug having a first plug segment and a second plug segment. In one or more embodiments, the second plug segment has a hardness greater than the first plug segment, where the suture passes through the plug with the first plug segment between the intravascular anchor and the second plug segment and the second plug segment between the first plug segment and the fastener.
