The 5 gal. Homer Leakproof Lid is made of plastic material. This lid has a special design for leak resistance and contains a gasket to seal in liquid. The Home Depot orange color is an ideal match the 5 Gal. Homer Bucket.
Lid application may require the use of a mallet around edges to ensure proper seal
A:Â Andrew - the gasket lid is designed to be airtight as long as the seal is not broken. It would have to be applied properly.

Q:Once I take the lid off with a screw driver or a handle that is made to remove the lid, can I reuse it as long as the pull tab is still intact?

Answer This Question
A:Â Even if the pull tab is ripped off it should still be able to reuse the lidÂ

A:Â Heather - I'm not sure how tight the seal would be, it would depend on how much it stretches. You can still use the lid, it just might not seal as tight.

Q:How come the lid is loose and falls off when moved

Answer This Question
A:Â Hi Joey, If you haven't yet broken the seal, you may need to use a mallet to get the lid completely seated. After the seal is broken, the lid becomes a pop-on. If you want something to go on-and-off, look for a reusable or easy-off lid. We only sell black easy-off lids to Home Depot. Search for 723222.

Great lid tuff to get on.
Lid is great once you remove the plastic seal. Hard to get on the first time. Trick is to press lid on with bucket against chest and both hands pressing on the lid snapping one section at a time. I tried stepping on the lid but didn't work.

Orange Is The New Bucket!
Clearly the Home Depot Orange 5 Gallon Bucket is the Best Bucket Ever devised by man. You could not ask for a better or more versatile bucket. I liked it so much I bought two....and their lids. No party is complete without one

Lid for 5 Gallon Homer Bucket
Mine was just delivered. I was hoping they had corrected the problem that the other reviews had pointed out. However, the lid still does not fit the 5 gallon Homer bucket. The inside lip of the lid is to large. You cannot force it into the bucket, therefore you cannot get the lid to stay on. In the photos, you can see where the lid seats properly and where it will not go down. The gasket is exposed.

Works As a Pontoon Cap
Are these things water tights? You bet! Are they affordable? Also yes! Will they support a wagon, beer cooler and boom box down a raging river? Ding, ding ding, ABSOLUTELY!
A few buddies and I strapped 4 of these plastic tops to some homer buckets to create pontoons. We strapped those pontoons to a wagon and floated our beer cooler down the springs! Not once did the buckets fill with water over the three day weekend we were there. I would highly recommend these products to anyone needing to store liquids or make carrying beer down a river easier.

Perfect container for storing bird seed. The lid prevents other critters from eating the seed.
