Why Beekeepers Use This Product

Honey producers commonly use continuous thread metal lids to seal glass honey jars for storage, gifting, and retail sales.

Gold lids are often chosen because they provide a traditional honey jar appearance that works well with clear glass packaging.

When to use: Use these lids anytime you are filling and sealing compatible 48mm CT jars.

How It Works

A continuous thread lid twists onto matching jar threads to create a reusable screw-top closure.

• Built-in plastisol liner helps create a tight seal against the jar rim
• Metal construction provides a durable threaded closure
• Gold finish gives jars a clean, finished appearance

Apiary Management Notes

• Many honey producers use shrink bands with metal lids to add tamper evidence for retail jars.
• Always match the lid size exactly to the jar finish size.
• Keeping extra replacement lids on hand helps during honey bottling season.

Seasonal Use

• Spring: Commonly used for early-season honey packaging and gift preparation.
• Summer: Frequently used during honey extraction and bottling season.
• Fall: Often used for packaging harvested honey and homemade goods.

What’s Included

• 24 gold metal screw top lids
• Built-in plastisol liners installed in each lid
