I was wondering if commercial handles like Guinness, or American handles fit on the Nukataps on kegerator’s? Has anyone installed them on their kegerator? If not is there and adapter or easy modification? I was looking at a Guinness handle but it looks like it’s different. Also it looks way larger would that be an issue?
 
Standard faucet threading for tap handles is 3/8"-16 UNC. Nukatap faucets respect that spec, and you can find threaded "Guinness" handles that will fit. But note there's a whole segment of legit Guinness handles that are designed to fit Guinness faucets and don't actually have a threaded receiver, instead having a pinned fitting that looks like this:

While there are adapters to go from ^that^ to a standard handle thread it's probably best avoided in favor of a handle with a native fitting thread...

Cheers!
