Would these work for storing standard Quart canning jars? I am looking for something to replace old boxes, and would like to store them by the dozen.

They would work fantastic for them, they are stack-able as well. They are deep enough that I think you could stack 2 jars on top of each other depending on how big the jars are.

I have the 30 qt size and have loaded a picture with two qt jars sitting in the corners so you can see the bottom is NOT flat at all. Also mine starts off 9.5" wide at the bottom and widens to 10.5", and the length at the narrowest (where the handles are) begins at 14" and widens to just shy of 15". I use mine for craft & clothing storage and love them. But these containers aren't squared off in any way at the bottom or at the corners. On the other hand, they stack beautifully.

I know they are the correct size for the unmarked jars my wife has. Those are generic wire bale canister jars. It was a tight fit but they work fine. Use a micrometer to find the diameter and these were about a quarter inch smaller than the jars, but work find and seal properly.

These are very good a storing dry goods. Since the lids are watertight they hold in the product's freshness very well. As will any dry goods though, make sure that you eliminate as much oxygen as possible. Adding oxygen absorbers and/or flushing the container with nitrogen is recommended.

If the 4 oz ball jars have the same size opening as other ball jars (not the wide mouth); then these should fit. I've used them on jelly jars, and if the size you asked about is the smaller size jelly jar, these should fit.I've been using these lids for over a year and they haven't begun to rust. Your idea of hand washing (and drying) is great.

Yes. I use them for baking storage of salt, baking powder and soda. Easier than dragging the original retail boxes out.

we use them to post photos on our refrigerator, and for that they are very strong. I'm guessing that unless you have something very heavy in your jars these should work.

Yes, this works great for 4 oz jars. If you have two racks, you can stack them. I canned 16 4 oz jars in one batch last summer.

Hello Shelly, I am glad to answer your question...these little canning jars are so handy in my kitchen/home! Even though they are meant for canning and can withstand a fairly high temperature, I would not put them into the oven. I use them for keeping small amounts of cooking ingredients that I use often and do not wish to handle the large containers which these ingredients are originally packaged. Also, I have given a few to friends who saw them and admired their "just the right size" feature for lots of things throughout the home. I plan to order more in the near future.

I would not suggest them for a very small container. I have one in my flour canister and one in my sugar canister, but they are both large containers. I would not try to use them in any small canisters.

These are small lids-- the size is close to a standard milk bottle. If you mean Ball canning lids, no. I don't think that will work.

You can use small, Bell Brand, glass canning jars. They are a perfect fit, and I can fit 7 into my yogurt maker.

I'm not sure? They do not fit the wide mouth quart jars. We used them on the smaller jars with handles and like the other poster, we put birch wood straws through the middle. I painted the kids white and then covered then with these pewter lids and we served lemonade at our wedding in them.

No. That's why I use a gallon bag to store them. It's a store-brand Ziploc equivalent and holds up to 66 (three boxes worth) and takes up less space than the original box or the silly dispenser sold with some. I just checked them against a quart-size bag. You could fit maybe half a box in one, if bag size is an issue. But no, they are not individually wrapped or anything like that.

Yes, you can use regular canning rings with these lids. I suggest you keep the ring on after the canning process. My experience is that this lids came loose after a couple of days, but they worked very well for some people with the rings staying tight for some time.

As long as the lid size is the same then yes you can use quart size mason jars.

I think they would work well to store dry spices and they do stack well with the lids on. But i don't think I would stack more than2 or 3 or else it gets wobbly.

The large mouth Ball lids and rings should work. The ones used for canning.
