We use 120 mm screw-on PP lids with F217 liners, which we get from Kols. They hold OK, but overtightening can cause the skirt to spread, dishing the lid and potentially compromising the seal. 120 mm seems the upper size limit for flexible screw-on lids; above
that, they should either be metal or some other kind, such as clamped or two-piece.</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
In my experience, the older two-piece 120 mm plastic lids with a separate disk and ring (like 2-piece canning lids, or those on Kilner jars) do a better job. This is because the disk was evenly pressed onto the mating face regardless of whether the ring distorted
or not. You can dress the jar rim with vacuum grease, too, which guarantees a good seal. These lids have not been made for many years, though. </div>
