Will this work on regular mouth canning mason jars (Ball &amp; Kerr) ?

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.

They fit perfectly on a narrow mouth canning jar. I tried it on two different canning jars - one was Ball canning jar - and the other was an off brand.

The FoodSaver Jar Sealers can be purchased separately. The Jar Sealer fits on your Ball and Kerr Mason jars and works with FoodSaver vacuum sealer systems to store foods and keep them fresh longer. The Jar Sealer is not to be used to replace the canning process and does not replace the lid of the jars. There are two sizes - the http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-T03-0006-02P-Regular-Mouth-Jar-Sealer/dp/B0000CFFS6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412352652&sr=8-1&keywords=REGULAR+JAR+SEALER and the http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-T03-0023-01-Wide-Mouth-Jar-Sealer/dp/B00005TN7H/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412352681&sr=8-1&keywords=wide+mouth+jar+sealer. Depending on your jar size that you want to use for food storage, you only require one jar sealer.

No would not work with regular mouth jars. I did try and it is to big unless you use a funnel... but that would be to tricky to pour, everything would go sew saw.

I do not think so. The threads are different. However, I have not seen a wide mouth ball jar lid in quite a while so my memory may be faulty. I measured the outside diameter (OD) of lip of jar on this 2 1/2 gallon jug and it is 4 1/2" wide. The lid will fit but the one I purchased; the lid will go on and then if you keep screwing lid on it pops off. Hope this helps you.

Absolutely. I use it all the time for canning jars. Mostly to strain kefir .. but yes, I've used it for both regular and wide mouth jars.

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.

I do not think it will. I believe Ball is the only company that makes a 1 gallon jar. They are usually decorative jars with larger lids. I used a 1/2 gallon mason jar and it works great. Good luck to you and I hopes this helps you.

I tried it on the standard mason jars I have and it's smaller in diameter - but I'm no expert on Mason jars - the jars I tried are about 3" openings whereas the opening on the grinder is about 2.25" (58mm) ID. So no match to the inventory of jars I have!

Depends on the shape of your 4 oz. jar. These lids fit a standard small-mouth Ball jar. Hope that helps.

Yes, it screws on to the regular mouth jar; it would not fit a wide-mouth jar.

Yes it will. I have both the regular and wide mouth jar sealers and have sealed with each one using the tube that comes with each one. Just attach the tube in the vacuum sealer port and the other end to your jar sealer and turn on!

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

I use Mason jars for canning, processing them in a boiling water bath. After removing the ring from processed and cooled jars, a bottle opener easily lifts the metal, rubberized lid. I wonder if the jar opener, as great as it is for vacuum-sealed glass jars (olives, pickles, etc.), would catch the edge of the thin Mason jar lid. If you know someone with a Jar Pop, ask them to try it on a Mason jar.

Hello Denise, good questions! These lids are for wide mouth mason jars. Wide mouth lids are aprox 3.5inch diameter. Regular mouth mason lids are smaller then these ones. Regular mouth dimensions are aprox 2.5inch diameter. Does that answer your question? Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

I haven't used it on plastic jars yet. It works very well on most jars. There are two sets of jaws that tighten on the lid and the jar itself. The lower jaw has a problem gripping if the jar has a longer tapered neck. I did find however, it did loosen the lid a bit making it easier to manually open the jar.

Sorry I am not really sure. I do not have any regular jar lids to test this with.But my jut would say No. they have a shallower rim. Hope this helps~
