These 1/2 pint
plastic jars and matching lids are both made of a highly durable polypropylene
plastic. They can be steamed, pressure cooked or autoclaved repeatedly. The plastic jars themselves are straight walled and clarified for easy viewing. The lids are white and
ribbed for tight gripping.
Our plastic jars
work great when growing cakes, sterilizing media or starting cultures. Compared
to glass, they will not break or crack due to extreme changes in temperature.
Also, unlike canning jars, these plastic jars come with plastic (no metal) lids.
This means that you'll have no rusting or staining.
There is another
advantage to our plastic jars in comparison to conventional glass canning jars.
Our plastic jars have the same surface area as a wide mouth glass jar but the
plastic jars are taller! This means that you can fit an additional 2-3 more
cakes in your terrarium!
These jars and
lids are dishwasher safe, lightweight, and inexpensive to ship (in companions
to glass jars) .
Each case contains
10 jars with matching lids.
