Is it possible to get caps for the tips of these bottles? It doesn't need to be a complete seal. I just want to limit exposure to air.

No, but you could fashion on if you wanted. Well, no isn't the best answer, there may be some out there, but I haven't seen them yet.

The particular tips I have didn't come with any caps. I've seen similar bottles with caps attached so I wouldn't think it's impossible but one would need to shop around and try them out to see which fits. I generally use mine for soy sauce and cooking oil and since I use them nearly everyday it doesn't bother me that it's exposed to air. I wouldn't notice how much evaporates or if it spoils unless I let it sit for a while.

You might be able to use "Glu-bot" yorker tips, which are available on Amazon. A 5-pack is just 75 cents, so there's not much lost if they don't work well. They are the only tip seals I have found being sold separately from the caps. Yorker caps with seals are sold separately from the bottles, but you would have to be sure to get the right diameter and the right thread pitch to fit the bottle properly.

I have seen squeeze bottles with caps so I guess anything is possible. However, to answer your question, I don't know if any cap would fit as I have never tried to do that. Sorry I could not help you.

The caps never go on the bottle. They just go on the bag so you can freeze your breast milk. If your worried about the bottle leaking out in your diaper bag the cap that goes over the nipple fits really well,i never had a problem with leaking.

Hi Kay, I just went and shoved one in a beer bottle. It fits in with about 1/2 inch sticking out the top. I'm not sure what you are planning on using these for. But they are very tapered, so they wouldn't seal something completely for long term. I used them for making decorative wine bottle stoppers. The kind you us for the short term after opening a bottle of wine. They worked great for that. Regards, Shelley

The caps do not come with these bottles. The bottles are good quality and havent had any issues with them.

Yes, there most definitely should be a seal around the cap. If you received one that was not, please contact us for a free replacement bottle. We'll ship it out expedited, free of charge.

The bottle has a foil seal. Don't remove it. Just poke a tiny hole in the center with a pin, and it works really well. Another thing I might do is transfer some into a small travel-size bottle...hopefully one with closeable spout. Way easier to handle! Hope that helps.

Yes there was a seal under the cap on the regular bottle that I purchased. However, there is no seal under the cap on the free bonus bottle of 30 that I received.

Yes, these require having a bottle capping tool. Amazon has a few around $17, http://www.amazon.com/Bottle-Capper-Red-Baron-Homebrew/dp/B000Q6ARMY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1418733765&sr;=8-1&keywords;=bottle+capper&pebp;=1418733779497 for example.

Mine came with a seal cap when I bought it in 2012. I hadn't used it since then, so I went to my garage to check on it. There was some dried product under the cap, so I cleaned it out with a screwdriver. Once I removed the dried material the rest of the product in the tube was still wet and usable.

I would say no, because the tip might clog up too quickly. I don't even get white glue through because it is too thick. There are other bottles out there that have plastic tips you can cut that might suit you better, and they are also cheaper. - I just looked and they claim you can put paint in, but these caps only push, not screw on, and I would not trust them with paint. Once the nozzle clogs it's done.

The caps are plastic, and require use of a gasket to make a tight seal - and the gasket is also plastic. Mine nearly immediately went bad upon contact with olive oil in the bottle. I was able to order replacement gaskets through Amazon. Very good question about the caps: I don't know. But on re-examining one of my bottles just now, I would guess that lifetime maintainability by replacing the caps was never considered in the design. You would need pliers, good manual dexterity, and great luck not to shatter the bottle. So in short, this is an expensive bottle that's generally not intended for long life. I hope this helps.

Sean, sorry, it was quite a long time ago and I don't remember if there was a seal or not. Probably there was but I can't swear to it, and now I don't know if there was a manufacture date or use-by date on the bottle. Who knows if those little seals work or not, they aren't vacuum seals. And once you take off the seal, oxygen flows into the bottle. I assume the manufacturer is mass producing millions of capsules per week, and that the cartons of bottles are warehoused for up to 6 months or longer, as most everything is.

I ordered the smallest jar (2.0 oz or so, I believe) and it actually came with a flip cap. Those are easy to seal for travel with a small strip of duct/duck tape. Not sure about the locking mechanisms available on the larger bottles/bottles with pumps, though my experience is a bit of tape will seal those also.

I have two caps and so far it has not done anything to them. Please go on the internet and see the reviews that are on there. Hope this will help you.

The cap outside is stainless. The inside is plastic, with a stainless disk/plug where the juice or water would contact the lid. I don't know if the plastic is for a better seal or to minimize abrasions on the top of bottle. I do recommend the bottles if your looking for a glass bottle with something better than a simple plastic cap.

Hey Jen,I just bought another bottle couple of days ago. The cap is sealed and underneath the cap is sealed as well. I would contact the seller. I would NOT use it. It MUST be sealed. Hope this helps.
