I've used a few of these from Amazon they seem OK, but stupidly priced - search the ASIN code B09LD119PF
I've got a load coming from China, way cheaper, but a gamble.
Did you post on https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=2&Number=14532108&fpart=&PHPSESSID= ?

I had issues sourcing 70mm sfd's recently, I even starting a thread on it. I found some discs from china but they were called "gaskets". I also considered the sheets of ptfe that could maybe be cut to size, but I couldn't be sure on the micron filter size etc. and decided it was too much of a gamble like janus62 says.
I ended up ordering from microppose in the US.

Thanks Jmac, have you used them yet and if so, how have they been?

I haven't used them yet but they seem very good quality and fit the jar lids well. Other reputable forum members have used these exact ones and report very good results with their grain jars.
I think they're good for the job and saves making holes in your jar lids which is a plus, particularly if they're those expensive ball mason leak-proof plastic ones. I have the cheap chinese sourced plastic white jar lids too, they also seem ok for mycology but they do leak liquid when turned upside down...I found this out recently when pickling eggs
I think with the filter discs in them they should have a much better yet breathable seal. Again other people have had good results with these lids for grain jars.
With the filter discs I've mentioned your sure on quality, being hydrophobic and filtering air exchange to the correct micron size. This information isn't always available when buying from 3rd parties or shops that don't specialize in mycology supplies.
At least this is my understanding and I'm a beginner, maybe someone else can correct me if I've got anything wrong.
