Masontops Tough Band - Wide Mouth Mason Jar Screw Bands - Quality Plastic Replacement Ring Seals & Jar Covers

Lacto-fermentation is a food preservation method using SALT and lactic acid bacteria to preserve food. When using salt regular jar lid rings can rust. I’ve had to throw away countless rings over the years due to rust. I still use regular metal rings for canning food the normal way, but now when I ferment food, I use these plastic rings. No more rust!

Theses work great for after the item has been "canned. Don't work for processing but after that the metal bands do become rusty sometimes. These plastic ones are great replacements and the multi sided grips make for easier opening and closing!

excellent!

Liked using for my fermented vegetables.

I purchased these because I was afraid the metal bands I was using would get stuck. I used them to hold down my Pickle Pipes (Masontops brand) and they leaked out the sides under pressure; even with the Pickle Pipes!They worked OK, but I had to really crank down when tightening. That said; if you have arthritis in your hands these bands allow a great, pain-free grip when removing!

Very heavy duty 💕 perfect ❣️

I got these to replace the metal bands on our regular sized Ball jars and they fit perfectly. The jars hold refrigerator pickles so they have not been used for canning.

Makes fermenting so much cleaner and easier, I just throw these in the dishwasher. Also easy to grip and remove lids! Love, will be getting wise mouth also!
