A canning rack keeps jars off the vessel bottom, supports water circulation, and helps keep jars upright during processing. If you are matching a rack to a gasket-free pressure canner, first compare model capacities in the All American pressure canner guide.

What to look for

  • A rack designed for the selected canner
  • Stable support for the jar sizes allowed by the tested recipe
  • Enough clearance for required water coverage and boiling action
  • No sharp, damaged, or unstable surfaces

Canners supplied with racks

These water-bath canners include compatible racks. Use them only for high-acid or properly acidified foods when a tested recipe specifies boiling-water processing.
