Product Information
Full details
The KADAX 66 mm jar lids are an essential tool for home canning enthusiasts and those looking to streamline their kitchen pantry organization. Designed for jars with a 66 mm diameter and a 4-hook thread, these lids provide a reliable, airtight seal that protects preserves from oxygen, moisture, and pests, ensuring ingredients stay fresh and flavorful. While these lids are highly effective for heat-treated and cold-stored preserves, users should note that they are specifically engineered for a 4-hook thread configuration, requiring verification of jar compatibility before purchase.

FAQs
Are these lids reusable?
Yes, these metal lids are designed to be durable and reusable for multiple canning cycles, provided they are not damaged or corroded.
Can I use these for water bath canning?
Yes, these lids are designed to withstand the heat-treatment process required for traditional home canning.
Do these fit all 66 mm jars?
They are designed for 66 mm jars with a 4-hook thread. Please ensure your jar matches this specific configuration.
What is the benefit of the silicone coating?
The silicone layer acts as a barrier between the metal lid and your food, preventing metallic taste transfer and protecting the lid from corrosion.
Are these lids dishwasher safe?
While durable, we recommend hand washing to maximize the lifespan of the silicone seal and the external finish.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not tighten properly
Check the jar rim for chips or residue. Ensure the jar is a standard 4-hook 66 mm compatible model.
Seal is not airtight after processing
Verify that the jar was not overfilled, leaving sufficient headspace for vacuum creation, and ensure the lid was properly centered.
Signs of corrosion on the underside
Check if the acidic content of the preserved food was too high for standard metal lids or if the silicone lining was scratched during use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your KADAX lids, follow these setup and maintenance steps:
- Compatibility Check: Verify that your glass jars are specifically rated for a 66 mm diameter and feature a 4-hook thread system.
- Preparation: Clean jars thoroughly and ensure the rim is dry and undamaged. A damaged rim will prevent the silicone lining from creating an airtight seal.
- Sealing: Place the lid on the jar and rotate clockwise until you feel the hooks catch. Tighten firmly but avoid excessive force.
- Cleaning: Use warm soapy water and a soft cloth to clean. Avoid abrasive sponges that could scratch the internal silicone coating or the external cream-colored finish.
- Storage: Store unused lids in a dry, cool place to prevent oxidation or pre-emptive wear of the sealing compound.
