Jar diameter and cap width
Jars often have wider caps than bottles, which can change the required tooling and the way the container is held during tightening.
Jar capping
Jar screw capping machines need to account for container diameter, cap width, product residue and the torque needed to close the pack consistently.
Selection notes
Jar screw capping machines need to account for container diameter, cap width, product residue and the torque needed to close the pack consistently.

Buying detail
Jars often have wider caps than bottles, which can change the required tooling and the way the container is held during tightening.
Jars may be used for creams, gels, powders, foods and specialist products. Product residue around the rim can affect cap seating and presentation.
Semi automatic capping can suit lower-volume jar production, while automatic systems may be considered if the pack is stable and repeatable.
Include cap diameter, closure type, bottle size, target output, available space and whether the capper needs to connect to filling or labelling equipment.

FAQs
Sometimes, but cap diameter, jar diameter and holding method must be checked.
It depends on the closure and liner. Wider caps may require different handling.
Yes, but filling, transfer and capping should be planned together.
