A ring labelled for a 350mL Travel Tumbler is not necessarily the right ring for every 350mL lid.<\/strong> KINTO distinguishes Type A and Type B lid components, and explicitly warns against mixing the two.<\/p>\n

The USA part 40930 page<\/a> identifies a Type B silicone-ring set for the 350mL Travel Tumbler. It says Type B rings cannot be used with Type A lids and caps. For older rings, the maker recommends a new lid that includes the updated rings rather than substituting the new ring into the old lid.<\/p>\n

Identify the lid that is actually on the bottle<\/h2>\n

KINTO’s UK parts guide<\/a> dates the referenced update to January 2025 and uses a KINTO logo inside the lid to identify the Type B arrangement. Its diagrams distinguish the cap, drinking lid and two rings. The USA support page<\/a> also records the revision.<\/p>\n

Purchase date alone can mislead if a seller supplied older stock, or if a previous owner replaced the lid. Check the actual component against the maker’s illustrations. The bottle body’s colour is not an identification method supplied by these sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

A replacement is not a leak diagnosis<\/h2>\n

KINTO’s support guidance also discusses assembly, angled closing and ring wear. Buying a ring does not prove which of those explains a particular leak. Follow the correct revision’s instructions or ask KINTO to identify uncertain parts; do not force a mismatched ring into place.<\/p>\n

For a second-hand tumbler, we would request a clear inside-lid photograph and the marked capacity before buying spare parts. That small identification step is more useful than relying on a product-family name that spans revised components.<\/p>\n
