Are all Perlicks created equal?

[Yeastmonkey]

I found someone with 7 Perlick 410xtf's for sale on CL. I cant seem to locate any detailed info on them. Does anybody know if these are forward sealing, and/or are they worth getting?
Thanks

Perlick makes a wide range of faucets. That particular model is a traditional, rear sealing brass faucet...definitely not the one favored by homebrewers.

I've looked for a comparison on the models...something like the "this vs. that" section would be awesome, but I can't find anything! Can anyone drop a link if I'm missing it?

The catalog I linked to above has that and more. Everything you could want to know about all Perlick faucets and shanks.

*almost* everything, as it has nothing on 525 or 575 models...

Ah, you're so right...perhaps they are too new. Not to worry, check out http://www.perlick.com/pdf-files/Perlick_TAPPING_WISDOM_SS.pdf for some info on those models.
