I bought a glass cookie jar that sits on it's side with a wooden lid. The lid has no gasket to fit tight to the jar. Does anyone know where I could get one? I have tried Google and haven't found what I'm looking for yet. Would silicone work on the lid to make a tight fit? I'm hoping someone can help me, I really like the jar. Thanks so much.
I have two things to suggest. The first is a large, thick rubber band wrapped around the area of the lid that would normally be covered by a gasket. The second is to run a thick band of hot glue in that area to mimick a gasket.
I would use silicone caulk, but I would put it between two sheets of waxed paper or something. Then I would trim it to fit with scissors. Try looking on eBay first, because there are still manufacturers of those gaskets making them.
I had a thought of this today after reading this post a couple days ago: Wrap Saran wrap or other similar plastic wrap tightly around the inner part of the lid where the seal is missing.
I am trying to figure out the proper size replacement rubber seal for a 1/4L jar? I just bought a used jar and the rubber seal is basically dried out. Thank you in advance.
The gasket measures 2 7/8" inside and 3 7/8" outside with a small lift tab. How or where can I get a replacement?

I was referred to this site from CS at Anchor Hocking for suggestions on where to find gaskets for Anchor Hocking's Heritage Hill 2 gallon, 1 gallon, and 3 quart storage jars, preferably not red.
I'm looking for a canister seal ring. Apparently, it is unusual in the replacement world in that the ring fits as a band around a part of the lid which inserts itself into the canister. I found lots that are horizontally flat or ones which fit like a washer into the lid threads.
Mine is vertically flat with a flange (profile is a sideways "T" [-- shape). Lots of canisters are made with this detail. I just can't find a replacement. The size needed is 89mm ID, 95mm OD.I am looking for replacement gaskets for a jar that has a 5" outer ring with 4" inner ring and also a 7 1/2" outer ring with 6 1/2" inner ring.
I have several drug store style apothecary jars of various sizes and differing lid sizes as well. I would love to use them as canisters, but cannot find the proper gaskets for them.
One of them had the black "tab". Any suggestions, besides rubber bands would help.Where can I get a clear, silicone gasket for a 5 inch food canister? I can find the canister and the gasket, but I just need the gasket.

It is flat, 3.5" inside, 5" outside. Anyone know where I can find a kitchen canister gasket like that?

I have a glass cookie jar with a glass lid. There is no gasket or other way to "seal" the lid and keep the cookies fresher. I need a rubber/silicone gasket 5-1/2" interior size.

I purchased an extra large Meloni jar minus the seal for air tightness. Any idea where this can be purchased?

Some of the metal closures are missing from my Fidenza storage jars. Where can I find replacement parts?
The price of replacements can be quite pricey. You may want to check out Fidenza Storage Jars for sale on eBay to see which would be a better option. www.ebay.com/

The best places would be thrift stores or garage sales. Sometimes you find more that you expect for very little money.
