<p>I was able to find plastic, unlined lids size 132-400 (132mm diameter, 400 thread), which fit our large 3 and 5 gallon glass jars from The Imagine Corp and F217-3 liners from Gasket Components (minimum order 300). The mold to these lids is held by EmpireEMCO,
but they will only produce them in batches of 1,000 by special order. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We need to replace some of our white plastic/HDPE buckets (2 to 5 gallon size) that hold fluid-preserved vertebrate specimens.
<span> </span>We also have some large glass pickle jars from the 1960s (approx 3 gallon size with neck handles). These have metal lids that need replacing.
<span> </span>The old lids are larger than 120mm size.<span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am wondering if anyone has experienced problems with or has further advice about polycarbonate plastic pails and lids that were recommended several years ago?<span>
</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I see that Anchor Hocking makes a glass pickle barrel jar (2.5 gallon size) but the lid is aluminum.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">See for example</p>
