Ball Regular-Mouth Mason Jar Lids — 96-Count (8×12) SureTight BPA-Free Single-Use for Canning

Ball Regular Mouth Lids are single-use sealing discs designed to create an airtight SureTight closure on regular-mouth Mason jars for home canning, pickling, juice, jams and jellies.

These Ball SureTight regular-mouth lids are made in the USA from BPA-free materials and are sized to fit standard regular-mouth Mason jars. Sold as eight packs of 12 lids each (96 lids total), they supply multiple preserves or bulk canning projects. The sealing compound on each lid is engineered to form a vacuum seal once processed and cooled; note that lids are intended for one-time use when canning.

How do these lids create an airtight seal for canning?

Each lid has a sealing compound applied to the inner surface that softens during heat processing and bonds to the jar rim as it cools, producing a vacuum seal. Proper jar preparation and following canning instructions ensure consistent seals.

• SureTight sealing compound forms under heat and cool down.
• Designed for regular-mouth Mason jar rims to ensure even contact.
• Use in recommended water-bath or pressure canning processes.

Can I reuse these Ball lids for another batch?

Ball regular-mouth lids are single-use for canning because the sealing layer compresses and conforms during the first use. After opening a jar, replace the lid with a new one for safe resealing or long-term storage.

• Lids are single-use for reliable vacuum performance.
• Bands (screw rings) can be reused if undamaged and clean.
• For short-term fridge storage, alternative lids or covers may be used.

What jars and projects work best with these lids?

These lids fit standard regular-mouth Ball Mason jars and are suited for canning high-acid foods, preserving juices, making jams, jellies, chutneys, pickles, and dry storage. They’re especially convenient when preparing many jars at once or running frequent preserves.

How long will a sealed jar maintain freshness using these lids?
