Cornie keg port thread size?

[MikeYoung]

I want to make a mini keg tapper that takes standard ball lock disconnects. What fittings will I need to mate with gas and liquid side port valves?

Thanks.
Mike.

Presuming you're asking about the post thread sizes used on Corney kegs so you can put posts on your own vessel, start with this link.


As you can see there a few different threads used depending on the manufacturer, so it would probably be a good idea to procure posts, dip tubes and poppets first, before trying to find the threaded risers to fit...

Cheers!

Thanks. That's good advice.

This is looking un-fun at the moment. Reconditioned 5 gal cornies cost less than the new posts + adapters + pipe fittings. Foxx lists a good selection of adapters for Cornelius and Firestone posts. 1/4" MPT is closest to most universal, if someone else wants to pursue this. I've given it up as a viable option.
