Blue Dew Cap Replacement (2Pk)

I needed something that would seal well and be removable. These fit the bill. They're a little tough to remove but have never popped off on their own. Never had a spill either. So they're perfect for my use. I bought more for new carboys after a couple of years of using 3 of these.

This is exactly what I needed to replace the worn/split pliable caps that came with my 3-gallon and 5-gallon water containers.These are not pliable, so they're a bit hard to put on and take off. I lack the strength to put on and take off with my hands, so I use pliers and a mallet. (When I'm refilling in the store, I usually look for a male to help me put on the cap.)

I like this cap because it i has a tight fit and not easy to remove giving me piece of mind that water inside the bottle will not leak. I was hesitant to buy because the reviews said that it was really difficult to remove. But that wasn't the case for me. it wasn't easy but very doable even for a not so strong lady like me.

This was handy to secure my water jugs.

Finally a cap that fits! I rotate a 3 bottle 5 gallon system in my house and the one time I send my older kids out to go refill our water, a cap comes up missing..I tried two different local stores here in my area and both were either too big or just thin poor quality. However, these caps are not. they are thick and grab the lip of my plastic 5 gallon <primo water jug> it ha a thin foam insert that give it that extra seal of protection from any water getting out. I'm very happy with this product and will be ordering more in the very near future.

I ordered 5 of these items (there are two caps per unit), and I'm very pleased. They fit perfectly snug on standard 3/5 gallon bottles (like the ones I'd get from the supermarket or water delivery). They are easy to remove, and can be reused over and over again (I use it to fill up water bottles from a home filter).This is a great way to store a small emergency stash of water for example. All in all, I highly recommend these caps, and they are a good deal (with very reasonable shipping costs).

As another reviewer mentioned, these caps are not water tight. In fact, mine split a bit up the side the first time i put them on, so they will obviously not work for long term water storage. Fortunately my cap only split a little so i am still able to use it to prevent water spilling in my car when I refill my 5-gallon bottles. For me it is a more economical solution then water delivery or buying a full bottle and 'trading in' the old one.

These work great for transporting your 5-gallon (or smaller size with same mouth opening size) bottles to refill. I used these to take my bottles to the grocery store and fill them up with filtered water at $0.39/gallon vs. paying almost $7/gallon from the water delivery company. The lids keep the water from splashing while in transit. Don't know if they would stay on if the bottle actually tipped over, but with the weight of the water I have never had to find out.
