Hey all,
Looking for some stainless steel shanks to go with some SS Intertap FC that I'm installing on a flat-faced T-tower. I'm installing enough that I'd like to save by getting non-Intertap shanks. However, there's a little bit of confusion for me here. I have heard that the Perlick FC faucets make them incompatible with a lot of shanks. Do the SS Intertap FC faucets also have issues? I've heard some places that they should work with any standard shank, so I might be able to use something like a kegco shank and they will match up. Also, if I get a bent barb, do they rotate, or when the faucet is orientated, will they be stuck in the downward-facing position? Since I have a T-tower, I'd like the barbs to face inward. Then again, I'm not sure if I should even get a bent barb, since it might be easier to clean the shank with a straight barb.
Thank you for your help!
