Are these air tight? Thank you.

Yes! We love them, because they are so tight locking - more than any other storage items we have tried.

Water tight, very much so. Air tight? Well, sort of. I wouldn't store a gas in them, if that is what you're asking. You don't smell anything if you've got something gross in there (that's happened a few times). But they are probably only about as air tight as a plastic bottle. So, some air is going to escape, it will just be slow. So I guess it depends on what you're planning to use them for.

Yes, they are. With a thin rubber gasket inside the top of the lid to make them air tight.

I do not know about water but I can say they are air tight. When I filled my buckets it was very hot that day. Since then it has cooled off. Due to the contracting of the air in cooler temperature the buckets have slight indents on the sides. Nothing major as they are still stacked fine but I took it as reassuring that they had a really good seal. Very pleased with my purchase! Hope that helps!

They're not airtight. They're tight enough to stay on when not tossed around or shifted. But, they're definitely not like a Tupperware lid that seals shut.

Yes! They are definitely tight. I had to actually stretch the plastic a bit because they were a little too tight.

By definition, no it is not even remotely air tight. But if you have plastic bags and a rubber band you can easily make a proper seal.

no, they are not air tight. you have to get a special can light housing that is watertight for over a shower. check with home depot or lowes, they have them.

They are air tight. I use them to store yeast and have never had a problem.

No, there pretty tight. The will not keep your feet dry once submerge. Excellent to protect you heel from your open heel dive fins.

Have not tried this but I would think so. They are airtight and light weight.

I don't know, however they are air tight in what I believe to be a foil lined bag. So I would presume it is OK..you may want to check with the manufaturer.

As long as they are boxed, no problem. BUT.. and i can't emphasize this enough, make sure they don't leak (draw air). They can exert a surprising amount of force if they re-inflate in an enclosed space. I suggest put a vacuum on them, seal'em up and let'em sit for a few days to make sure they aren't leaking. Then box and ship

I don't think so. Don't believe these boxes are airtight. We use these boxes to store shoes in. I personally use ziplock freezer bags for bagels, etc.

Definitely not airtight. Don't remember where they were made or if plastic is BPA free. Sorry I couldn't help you out more.

Nope, not at all. You don't need to tighten them very much, just enough to keep the air out. The top just smoothly sinks in a bit. You should be able to do it. If you put it on too tight, you may have a hard time getting it open.

No they are not water tight. You want to get yourself some Muck boots for that my friend.

Yes there are air tight and don't see why not safe to store seeds. Don't know about shrinking but don't think so.
