Ball 68100 Wide Mouth Half Gallon Mason Jar 6 Pack

Product Description

The Ball 68100 is a wide mouth, half-gallon glass mason jar sold in a 6-pack with 2-piece closures included. Each jar holds 64 ounces and features a wide mouth opening that makes filling, emptying, and cleaning straightforward. The 2-piece closure system consists of a flat lid and a screw band, which is the standard configuration for home canning and food preservation. These jars are a staple for anyone doing volume canning, fermenting, dry storage, or bulk food prep.

The half-gallon size is well suited for preserving large-batch items such as juices, pickles, and fermented vegetables. The wide mouth design simplifies packing whole or large-cut produce. These jars are commonly used in residential kitchens, homestead operations, and commercial food prep environments where consistent, reusable glass containers are required. Each jar in the 6-pack ships with its own 2-piece closure, so no additional lids are needed out of the box.

Installation Notes

Wash jars, lids, and bands thoroughly before first use. When pressure or water bath canning, follow current USDA guidelines and the Ball Blue Book for proper processing times, headspace, and sealing procedures. Inspect each jar for chips or cracks before use, and never use a compromised jar for heat processing. Screw bands should be fingertip-tight only before processing to allow proper venting and sealing.
