they are hard vented plastic lids. Supposedly supposed to be able to use in microwave but I have not used them in microwave yet.

I have used them in the microwave with no problem. Just keep the air hole open, the black top.

I'm not familiar with the lids made by Ball, but these are reliatively firm and durable.

The lids are the same in term of leakage. I use saran wrap before I put the lids on. That works for me.

The lids are plastic but as other people have said, they don't fit well. I ordered the set and 1 lid fit fine but the other 2 were much too loose. I returned the set.

Wish I could assist you on this, however I do not know. I used the covers on a Shuberth communication system that is linked to my BMW motorcycle. The covers are about 3/8 to 1/2 inch inside diameter. In order for them to remain on the small diameter mic, I have to use O-rings.Michael

The lids have a rubbery feel to them. It's a synthetic material that is used in a variety of ways including bake ware. Hope this helps.

The lids are a hard plastic. They kind of suction in the containers. They stay in pretty good.

It's a common problem with these, the solder job isn't the best on these. Once you resolder these they're pretty reliable. I don't ever complain about this cause its a sub $20 mic. A few fixes on these and they aren't that bad

They are made of Tritan, a bpa-free copolymer similar to polycarbonate. I do not know if the lids fit the old black lidded containers add my prior plastic ware had curved blue lids.

The lids snap on. They have a nice rubber seal that holds in everything.....I've tipped it over at work and no spills!!!

The lids seem to be of good quality yes. I haven't used them a whole lot thus far but they have been great the few times I've used them.

These are not screw on lids, they are more pressure locks. When screwing on just tighten slowly until you feel it getting snug, you'll feel the lid snap or click to a position. That's as far as you need to tighten, the seal will do the rest of the work.

Definitely not they are just regular screw on lids like on a peanut butter jar .

Theyl're not as tight as the metal lids. I like them because I can label the lids with dry erase markers.

The jars are glass, the lids are plastic. They work great and I use my jars all the time... especially now that I have the lids with the straws in them and can access freshly made juices, etc away from home
