A shopper on Dec 24, 2016 BEST ANSWER: The wires and the plastic tops last a very long time. The redish rubber seal needs to be replaced as they age. I have used mine for a couple of times and they are still fine. With time they will harden and crack, time to replace. I wash them when I drink the beer and then pull back the red seal to prevent any kind of growth that might contaminate beer. I dont remove them just pull them away for better drying.

Reply Inaccurate Eliot C. on Dec 24, 2016 Purchased on Oct 24, 2015 0 I use them on my handmade growlers. So far, have had no problems with the 6 in circulation. I know one has been used at least a dozen times and still going strong. Reply Inaccurate Dorothe M. on Dec 24, 2016 Purchased on Aug 7, 2015 0 I've had them on bottles for several years. Occasionally I may replace the red washer but not often. Reply Inaccurate Maxwell H on Dec 24, 2016 Purchased on May 4, 2015 0 Ive had mine for fifteen years.

A shopper on Nov 28, 2016 BEST ANSWER: Only if the wine bottles are made to use this type of closure. Bottles that use these swing-tops are specifically made to use them; they have thick glass at the neck, and have 2 "dimples" for the wires to grab onto when installing the tops. They would not be able to be used on a standard, "cork-finish" wine bottle, or a standard screw-top wine bottle. -Mike W, Northern Brewer Reply Inaccurate Mike W Staff on Mar 1, 2017 Hide answers Add Answer Answer I Have This Question Too (1) 0 BEST ANSWER: Only if the wine bottles are made to use this type of closure.
