Are these water tight? Looking for something that wont allow liquid to spill if tipped over in my work bag. Is there an internal gasket?

I just filled a small ball jar more than 1/2 way with water, tightened the lid and shook the heck out of it. No spills or leaks! Then I set it sort of upside down in a bowl (like it fell over in your bag) - Its been about an hour - no water in the bowl! There is no gasket but I think it'll work.

I haven't had a problem with leaking, but mine are still pretty new. I tossed a mason jar with smoothie into the diaper bag. It didn't leak. It was kind of risky, but I was desperate at the moment.

No internal gasket and it does leak after a few uses. I bought the plastic version of it, much better.

It doesn't have an internal gasket.I use it on my jars that I brought from Kroger - doesn't spill at all

it has a rubber seal along the ridge of the top of the ammo can that should create a water tight seal when the lid is closed and locked in place - that being said these are not machined perfectly and hence I doubt they will be completely water tight

Yes, the lids "screw-on" and are very secure. I pack the bowls in my backpack and take the train daily and have never had a leakage problem. I ended up ordering two sets because I use them so much.

The gasket will keep liquid out. The internal compartments are not sealed from each other and liquid would transfer from one to the other with normal handling.

I've never had one leak, and I've been using these for years. They do have a gasket or seal inside the lid that may come out in the dishwasher. I've only had that happen once. I use these because I have arthritis and they are easy to open and close...without leaking.

I would use some type of silicone sealant to prevent drips and spills. It's tight, but not a waterproof seal

No they do not provide a water tight seal. They leak and they began to rust on me.

I fly with 2 of them every week and have not had a problem. But the contents in them is more thick than thin. If I leave them in my checked suitcase I put it in a plastic bag. Overall, no leaks yet!!

Hi,The lids are screw type and they do come off easily once you get the hang of it. And they definitely attach securely. As far as I have seen there has been no spillage. But all the same it's better to be careful. I have used it mainly for dry stuff.

I have two of the 8-oz and one of the 40-oz of these bottles and none leak. All the lids have rubber gaskets on them. I use the small ones in my daughter's lunch box. It looks like they've changed the lid design since I bought mine about 2 years ago. I can say that I've found the quality of their bottles to be excellent.

I have never had a problem with liquids leaking. I use the smaller sizes in my lunch bags and have never had a leak. The others don't get shaken much unless I'm using them for a marinade, which get shaken gently, but again, no trouble. I like these a lot.

Yes they are water tight. I put hot wings in the larger one for a party and they were still steaming an hour later. If water gets on it, or sits in water the food inside the container should be fine. Just be careful not to drop, one of my friends dropped on the driveway and cracked a piece of the handle off.

No. They do not have a rubber gasket that makes them leak proof; however, they work well for things like thick salad dressings, ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc. These are designed to hold small portions of food inside a tiffin to keep them separate (like say you have tomatoes you want to put on a salad or something like that) and are not really intended to be filled with liquid.

They Don't leak... But you need to make sure you "snap" the lid close. if you don't hear the "snap" its not closed. :-)

Yes, its water tight. There is a rubber seal. I submerged it overnight and no water got in. I own a bunch of them.

Yes, they are absolutely air tight. There is a rubber (or perhaps silicone?) gasket around each lid, and when closed makes a tight seal. I keep items such as flour, cornmeal and sugar in them safely.

The lid on mine seals very tightly. They are definitely "air-tight". I have not tested it in water, but I would assume that yes, they are. Hope that helps :)
