I am new to kegging and just bought this perlick tower to dispense my homebrews but it came with a strange fitting on the end of the beer lines and I have no idea how to connect it to my ball lock kegs. Help please!

Here are some pictures of the fitting that I am referring to. Do I need to purchase some type of an adapter to connect this to my keg?

I agree as well. I went with 12' lines and my pours are perfect, and I've gone up to 18psi for my Hefeweizens. Also, I'd like to recommend considering better quality line than standard vinyl. Many people do just fine with vinyl but many other, including myself, completely notice the vinyl leeching in plastic flavors, it's disgusting. To eliminate that you'd need to go with special beer lines that do not impart taste. I went with PVC-free Ultra Barrier Silver lines, couldn't be happier:

More people on here however use Bev-Seal Ultra Barrier:

IMO, just do this now because if you do get the nasty vinyl taste it will ruin your beer pours and then you'll have to redo all your lines. But that's just my opinion.
