Product Description
Tinplate lids with gasket for air – tight sealing of canned goods
Tinplate Lids with Gasket for Air-tight Sealing of Canned Goods
Size: 58mm, 65mm, and 90mm diameter options (fits small to large canned containers); height 10mm; rolled rim with 0.3mm thickness for enhanced durability; compatible with both glass jars and metal cans.
Material: 0.25mm tin-plated steel (tinplate) with a food-grade PE coating (outer surface); integrated gasket made from heat-resistant EPDM rubber (temperature range -40°F to 248°F); BPA-free and compliant with food contact regulations.
Color: Natural tin finish (silver) as standard; custom matte or glossy paint (e.g., red, blue, black) available for orders over 5,000 units; optional embossed logos for branding.
Gasket Feature: Full-circumference EPDM gasket (1.5mm thick) bonded to the inner rim, designed to compress evenly for a secure seal.
Applications
Perfect for commercial canneries, artisanal food producers, and home canning enthusiasts. Used to seal canned fruits, vegetables, jams, sauces, seafood, and dry goods (e.g., nuts, grains) in glass jars or metal cans for shelf storage and distribution.
Features & Advantages
Core Function: Creates an air-tight seal that locks in freshness and prevents contamination, ensuring canned goods remain safe and flavorful for extended periods. The tinplate construction provides structural strength, while the gasket forms a barrier against air and moisture.
Differentiators (FAB):
Attribute: Bonded EPDM gasket (no loose components).
Benefit: Unlike lids with removable gaskets that shift or fall off, this integrated design ensures consistent sealing—reducing the risk of leaks during transport and storage, which is common with cheaper two-piece lid systems.
Attribute: Tinplate with PE coating + rolled rim.
Benefit: Resists dents during handling and protects against minor scratches, maintaining the seal integrity even with rough treatment—outperforming thin aluminum lids that warp easily.
Attribute: Universal fit for glass and metal containers.
Benefit: Eliminates the need for separate lids for different container types, simplifying inventory for food producers and reducing costs associated with multiple lid sizes.
Quality Assurance: Manufactured in an ISO 9001-certified facility. Tested for air-tightness via vacuum decay method (no leakage at -30 kPa pressure); gasket material meets EU 10/2011 and FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 standards.
User Value
Scenario: A small-batch salsa company uses these 65mm tinplate lids to seal 16oz glass jars. During shipping to local stores, the jars are stacked and jostled, but the bonded gaskets keep every jar sealed tight—no leaking salsa or swollen lids. At home, customers notice the lid doesn’t pop when first opened (a sign of a perfect seal), and the salsa retains its fresh, zesty flavor for months after purchase.
User Benefits: Reduces product recalls from seal failures; enhances shelf appeal with dent-resistant lids; cuts inventory costs with universal fit; builds customer trust through consistent quality.
Packaging & Shipping
Each lid is stacked in plastic-free cardboard sleeves (100 units per sleeve); bulk packed in reinforced cartons (10,000 units per carton) with dividers to prevent rim damage.
Shipping via FedEx (3–5 days) for small orders; LTL freight for bulk (5–7 days); international shipping via sea freight (3–5 weeks) with optional air freight for urgent orders.
After-Sales Service
1-year warranty: Free replacement for lids with defective gaskets (e.g., poor bonding, uneven sealing).
20-day returns: Full refund for unused lids if size compatibility issues arise.
Technical support: Free seal testing with your specific container type; guidance on proper capping torque for optimal sealing.
FAQ
Can these lids be used for high-acid foods like pickles or citrus jams?
Yes, the PE coating and EPDM gasket resist acid corrosion, making them suitable for pH levels as low as 2.5.
Are they suitable for cold storage (e.g., refrigerated canned goods)?
Absolutely, the EPDM gasket remains flexible in cold temperatures, maintaining a tight seal even after refrigeration or freezing.
What’s the minimum order quantity?
500 units for standard tin finish; 5,000 units for custom colors or embossed logos.
How do I ensure a proper seal when capping?
Use a capping tool set to 15–20 in-lbs torque for glass jars; for metal cans, follow standard canning line pressure settings—we provide detailed guidelines with orders.
Can the lids be reused after opening?
They are designed for single-use sealing, but can be reused for non-air-tight purposes (e.g., covering partially used jars in the fridge).
Do the lids have expiration dates?
When stored in a dry, cool place (below 77°F), they have a shelf life of 2 years from the production date—we print batch codes for traceability.
