Can you use these on half gallon wide mouthed jars?

I use this on wide mouth quart jars. It works very well. If the 1/2 gallon wide mouth jars use the lids and bans then you shouldn't have a problem

The wide mouth size fits the half gallon. There are only two "standard" sizes in these lids.This tool BTW is a dandy. I bought the associated punch and get these in the 5-pack valve only. You also need a bit of silicon jelly but that is all. We have done 10 half gallons and bunch of pints this fall. Our onion and pepper haul was too much to keep any other way. We even bought a commercial dehydrator to do the work. These gadgets are just the deal for that kind of thing.

Hi Bridget. Yes, but be sure to order the "Wide Mouth" vacuum lids, because half gallon size Mason jars only come with that size opening.Regards, Tom Cannon.

Yes but you should never can with half gallon jars. Consult the Ball Canning website for recommendations.

Fewer would fit, naturally, but the height of the canner would allow 1/2 gallon jars, so I would say it is possible. I haven't tried 1/2 gallon jars and the instructions in the manual only give times for quart and pints.

Yes, these should fit those jars; the opening is standard. The only jars which they won't fit are wide-mouth jars.

The wide mouth lids will fit any wide mouth jar: pint, quart, or half gallon.

The lids work very well! As for size, if you bought the jars new the words 'regular' or 'wide mouth' would be on the packaging. You may want to remeasure as a 2" opening is not a size with which I am familiar.

Yes, you will need wide mouth jars because the special lid that comes with the kit fits on a large mouth jar. JN

If the glass 5 gallon jar is built the same as plastic then yes...I guess you would need to check the diameter of the opening. Sorry I could not help more.

I would say yes. But make sure all the jars are not touching each other when you use. I am not an expert , but we used others like these in our pressure cooker years ago.Randy

These lids fit regular mouth jars. If the 4 oz jars have a regular mouth then yes, If they are "wide mouth" then no.

I use them with the 12oz mason jars. But, these lids would fit any regular mouth jar...just not the wide mouth jars.

No. The lids aren't true seals for the jars. These are more of a table decorative item

Thank you for your inquiry. We have not personally done that but it would work well. The small lip around the edge keeps the jars from falling off but isn't so high that it would make it difficult to get them out.

Any of the wide mouth jars. I've used them on the pint, quart, and half gallon jars already.

No it will only work on the true wide mouth jars. What you want is a regular mouth canning funnel, which inexplicably are usually called wide mouth as well. Measure your jar and then check against the measurement on the funnel. What you want should be very easy to find, much easier than this.

I just tried it on a wide mouth 2 quart jar. Perfect! Wish I'd thought of that when my glass container broke.

I have wide mouth jars and with 5 jars, have been able to have 1" of water on top. Maybe a little more than an 1"
