WECK cylindrical glass jar 1590 ml — pack of 6 offers six identical clear glass containers designed for food storage and home canning. Each jar holds 1590 millilitres and has a straight-sided, cylindrical shape that makes filling, measuring and stacking straightforward. The jars are made of durable, reusable glass and are compatible with WECK lids and sealing accessories to enable airtight storage of preserves, pickles, dry ingredients and prepared foods.
Advantages
The cylindrical form provides efficient use of shelf and fridge space while simplifying cleaning and filling. Glass construction preserves taste and aroma without transferring odors and is suitable for repeated use. Compatibility with a range of WECK lids and sealing components enables airtight preservation, and the uniform size in the pack supports batch processing and organised storage.

When it may not be suitable
These glass jars are not intended for use with direct flame or on stovetops and should not be used for cooking methods that require thermal shock resistance beyond standard glass canning. They are relatively heavy compared with plastic containers and can break if dropped or subjected to strong impacts.

How to use

Usage recommendations
For best results when preserving, use clean, undamaged jars and follow tested canning recipes and processing times. Allow filled jars to cool undisturbed to ensure proper sealing. For everyday storage, label contents and dates to maintain organisation and food safety.
