Our 63mm twist off replacement lids fit many of our most popular preserving and honey jars, making them one of the most versatile lid sizes in our range. Available in a choice of colours, finishes and pack sizes, they're ideal for beekeepers, jam makers, artisan food businesses and home preservers alike.
Every lid features a heat-sealable, vinegar-proof lining and is FSA approved and BPA free, providing a dependable airtight seal when used with compatible jars.
Heat-sealable with a vinegar-proof lining.
Creates a reliable airtight vacuum seal when applied correctly.
Available in a choice of colours, finishes and button safety options.
Quarter-turn twist-off closure for quick and secure application.
Suitable for home preserving and commercial food production.
Compatible with a range of glass bottles and jars requiring a 63mm twist-off lid.
Our twist off lids are available in both standard and button safety styles, depending on the colour and finish selected.
Standard lids provide the same reliable airtight seal and are ideal for everyday preserving, storage and commercial food production.
Button safety lids include a raised button in the centre that acts as a visual vacuum indicator. During heat processing and cooling, the vacuum created inside the jar draws the button down. Once sealed correctly, the button remains depressed until the jar is opened, providing reassurance that an airtight seal has been achieved.
Both styles are heat-sealable, vinegar-proof, FSA approved and BPA free.
These lids can be applied by machine but they can also be hand applied. Please follow these care tips for successful application. For more in-depth information please read our blog post on lids.
Take care not to over tighten, a quarter of a turn will seal the lid.
Check the lid is not cross threaded.
Warmed lids work best, they can be heated to a maximum of 60°C
Apply the cap finger tight and then apply pressure for 1/4 of a turn.
When filling the jar leave approximately 10mm (5%) space from the rim in order to create the best vacuum and seal.

I needed these urgently, as I was making marmalade and discovered I’d run out of lids. I telephoned Wares , and spoke to a delightful lady who took my order, and promised she’d get them to me as soon as possible. They arrived the next day. This is the most wonderful company; I have been a customer for many years, and have never been let down, or disappointed.
Excellent customer service Helpful and polite imo
So good to find lids that fit those smaller condiment jars that would previously been consigned to recycling in the ' melt'. The original lids are rarely usable, especially if they contained strongly flavoured ingredients. Being able to buy new lids means the old ones can go to the melt, and the glass can be hygienically reused with minimal energy. Win win!
Perfect - a good fit and a practical range of colours
Great Customer Service
Really good jar lids that hopefully will be vinegar proof as I've made a load of chutney.
Good fit and quick delivery
I searched the internet and Wares had the best price with free delivery and the product is first class
Lids to go with my 190ml food jars. The very thing and in different colours. Will choose another colour the next time I place an order. Very fast delivery and excellent customer service. Highly recommend.
