The L777GDPL3 is a gold metal 82TW lid with retort-grade plastisol liner. This lid is made of metal, which means it is fairly impervious to most processing methods. However, this metal lid has been fitted with a non-removable vinyl liner called plastisol, which has more restricted temperature and process requirements. Retort-grade plastisol caps are recommended for Sterilization (Retort) with Overriding Pressure heat process treatments. These processes typically involve high heat and pressure-cooking of filled and capped containers. This cap has a retort-grade plastisol liner, which is recommended for both "Sterilization (Retort) with Overriding Pressure". For " Sterilization (Retort) with Overriding Pressure " applications, minimum sealing temperature (temperature of the product in the jar after capping) is 149 F / 65 C, and the maximum process temperature tolerance is 250 F / 121 C.

A continuous thread cap usually requires a full turn. Please read 5 seals and how they make perfect liners for your container for more information on liner types.
