FAQs

What is the capacity of this Kilner jar?

This Kilner Cliptop Jar has a capacity of 0.5 Litre or 500 ml.

Is the entire jar dishwasher safe?

The glass jar component is dishwasher safe. However, the lid and rubber seal should be hand washed only.

Can I use these jars for vacuum sealing?

No, these jars are designed for airtight sealing using the integrated clip system, not for vacuum sealing.

How do I know if the seal is airtight?

When the clips are engaged, they should exert noticeable tension on the lid. If the lid feels loose, the seal may not be airtight, and you should check the rubber seal and clip engagement.

What are the jars made of?

The jars are made from high-quality sodalime glass, and the sealing mechanism includes a high-grade stainless steel clip system and a rubber seal.

Are there other sizes available?

Yes, Kilner offers a range of sizes in their Cliptop Jar series, including 1-litre options.

Troubleshooting

Jar lid is not sealing properly

Ensure the rubber seal is correctly positioned and not damaged. Check that the wire clips are fully engaged and providing sufficient tension. Make sure the jar rim is clean and free from debris.

Glass jar appears cloudy after washing

This may be due to hard water deposits. Try washing with a vinegar solution or using a dishwasher rinse aid. Ensure the jar is thoroughly dried after washing.

Rubber seal feels stiff or brittle

The rubber seal may need replacing. Kilner offers replacement seals designed for their clip-top jars to ensure optimal performance.

  2. Place the rubber seal onto the underside of the lid.
  3. Fill the jar with your chosen contents, ensuring not to overfill.
  4. Place the lid firmly on top of the jar.
