I was a PetCo looking for silicone tubing for my pot handles, and found these dog bowl covers. "Bowl Mates by PetCo" Seems like they could be used as pot lids that wont get bent! They're relatively thick and not too floppy.

XS – 92mm interior, 110mm exterior, 22g – just too small for a Titan Kettle but would fit some small solo pots (Toaks 95mm, SnowPeak 700, Evernew 600 (ECA264), etc)
S – 121mm interior, 138mm exterior, 36g – just too big for a Titan Kettle but would fit a lot of small pots like the Toaks 130mm size
M – 154mm interior, 174mm exterior, 56g – fits Evernew 1.3L pot, probably lots of others.

This one indeed would fit the Toaks 95 mm pots, however it is heavier than their native Ti lids.

I have 3 of them, and they weight 19 g, 19 g, 18 g.

Could be just a bit heavy. The MSR Titan pot lid (titanium) for the 154 mm size with large floppy handle weighs 54 g. It is rigid and protects the contents of my pot very nicely.
Interesting idea, though. Maybe someone could make thinner ones?

A couple years ago I got fed up with the clunky lid of my Snow Peak 700ml pot.

I purchased a food grade silicone sheet from Amazon and cut out a circle to fit, plus overlap a quarter inch or so. This came in slightly lighter than the original lid, stored inside the pot, and does double-duty as a potholder.

Only down side is that it tends to get sucked into the pot as the water cools. I think making it slightly larger might cure that.

I think I used 1/16" thick silicone.
