Hello,
A couple years ago, for some reason known only to past-Me, I decided to disassemble all my kegs, probably for cleaning and/or refurbishment. Now I want to get back into kegging and need to reassemble them. They are, I believe, different types of ball lock kegs (Spartan, Champion, etc.). So, do the posts have to match the style of keg, or are they all pretty much one-size-fits-all?

Thanks in advance!
 
Every manufacturer has a different style. Plus - with a given manufactuer - it changes over time as well. The parts are not interchangable. This includes the posts and the poppets. Plus - the gas in and liquid out posts and parts generally are completely different.

Good luck on putting everything back together again.

That...sucks! This is looking to be a fun project :drunk:
