Canning Lids
While canning lids are readily available at most supermarkets, many are not suitable for use in an autoclave. Uteko, a specialist in manufacturing autoclaves and canning components, offers specialized canning lids for various purposes on its website.
SKO 82 Canning Lids
These universal canning lids are designed for use with both autoclaves and manual canning with a hand tool. This model fits all jars with an 82 mm neck. A special canning tool is required for use with the jars. The lids are made from high-quality metal and feature sealed edges to prevent deformation during both manual canning and autoclaving.
Twist-Off Lids
This mechanism allows for sealing cans without a special tool, simply by twisting the lid onto a glass jar. On the website, you can purchase two types of Euro Twist-Off lids for canning:
