Ball Wide Mouth Canning Lids 48-Count (4 Dozen) SureTight BPA-Free — Fits 86mm Mason Jars, Single-Use Seal

Ball Wide Mouth Canning Lids: a 48-count pack of SureTight lids designed to create reliable single-use seals for standard wide-mouth Mason jars.

These Ball SureTight lids are engineered for home canning and storage, providing a simple way to seal preserves, pickles, sauces and dry goods. Each pack contains 48 wide-mouth lids (bands not included), manufactured in the USA from BPA-free materials. Note that the sealing component is intended for one-time use during heat-processing; bands are reusable if undamaged.

How do these lids create a safe seal for home canning?

During hot water bath or pressure canning, the SureTight lids compress and form a vacuum as the jar cools, indicating an airtight closure. The design is optimized to seat evenly on standard wide-mouth jars and reduces the chance of uneven sealing.

• SureTight sealing compound conforms to jar rim for consistent vacuum.
• Wide-mouth size fits common 86mm Mason jar openings.
• BPA-free materials manufactured in the USA for quality control.

Can I reuse these Ball lids and how should I store extras?

Ball recommends using the sealing liners only once for canning safety; after being processed they can be discarded. Unused lids can be stored dry and flat until needed to preserve their sealing properties.

• Use lid sealing material one time for heat-processed canning.
• Keep new lids in a cool, dry place to avoid warping or contamination.
• Bands (not included) are typically reusable when cleaned and inspected for rust or dents.

What jars and projects are these wide-mouth lids best for?

These wide-mouth lids are matched to wide-mouth Ball Mason jars and are ideal for canning chunky contents or filling jars quickly. They also work well for non-canning uses like dry storage and craft projects where airtight closure matters.

• Fits Ball wide-mouth Mason jars for jams, salsas, whole fruit and pickles.
• Useful for bulk dry goods, infusions, and homemade gifts.
• Appropriate for craft storage where an airtight seal keeps contents fresh.
