Ball 16oz wide mouth mason jars are a 12-pack of durable, food-grade glass jars with airtight lids and bands designed for canning, fermenting, and everyday food storage.

These 0.125-gallon jars combine classic mason-jar reliability with modern, BPA-free lid seals so you can store, preserve, ferment, and serve with confidence. Manufactured in the USA from heat-resistant, USDA-certified food-grade glass, this set is sized for individual portions, small batches, and countertop use. Each jar includes a two-piece lid system: a metal band and a grommeted plastic lid that creates a tight seal suitable for many home kitchen tasks.

How do these jars support safe fermenting and hot-water processing?

The Ball jars are made from heat-resistant, USDA-certified food-grade glass that tolerates the temperatures used in many home fermentation and canning methods. The grommeted lids are BPA-free and designed to provide a reliable seal that resists leaks and corrosion over time.

• Heat-resistant glass suitable for hot water baths and warm fermenting environments.
• BPA-free lids reduce risk of plastic degradation during use.
