A battery jar is disclosed for supporting a plurality of elongated battery plates together with an electrolyte therein. The battery jar comprises an elongated casing formed of a plastic material such as polycarbonate plastic or ABS plastic wherein the plastic material provides both an acid barrier and a means for supporting the weight of the electrolyte and the battery plates. The casing includes a plurality of transversely disposed pressure-supporting ribs or hoops which are positioned about the periphery of the casing for providing support against the radial pressure exerted against the casing. In one example the transverse ribs are formed integral with the casing and permit longitudinal expansion of the casing when the casing is lifted.
