I am sure I have perlick 525ss taps.. I just ordered a growler filler for them and it does not fit. it will not insert into the tap. To return it online they want a restocking fee and calling them gets an automated voice mail..... I have the perlick taps with the fancy cursive "P" on the front of the tap.
which taps do I have?

The perlick growler filler is different than the "standard" growler filler. It's more narrow. The one I ended up special ordering (because the one I bought was too big) was made by krome, part C719 I think: http://www.kromedispense.com/krome_sap.htm
Oh, and yes that sounds like the perlick 525 if it's got the cursive P on the front:

This what I've ordered and used twice for my 525SS faucets (need some hose too):
http://www.williamsbrewing.com/PERLICK-FAUCET-525SS-GROWLER-FILLER-P3153.aspx
Fits and works a charm for filling from the bottom of the growler. I couple this with a drilled rubber stopper on the faucet to act as a counter pressure device. Though growlers have never been much of a problem for me. It's those pesky 12 oz that cause me so much grief from the faucet without monkeying with pressures and such.
Anyway, hope this helps.

I got mine through my LHBS, ordering was no problem although it took about a week.
If it helps, I have been using a section of the old tubing off my autosiphon. Fits snuggly into the tap and does not leak. Was considering a filler, but they were hard to find for the 525's
