Turning pick tube up valve into racking arm?

[gotbags-10]

Wanting to try fermenting in my keggle. Is their anyway I could spin my ball valve/pickup tube assembly to use it as a racking arm. I see where the new anvil kettle ferment kit add a Teflon washer in between the valve to allow it to spin. Think this could work for me?

A good weldless bulkhead, if installed not-quite-immovably-tight, should be able to rotate 90° without coming apart, especially if the gasket/O-ring is wet.

Not sure what you could do if the valve is threaded into a welded bulkhead...

Cheers!

While spinning the valve sounds like a nice trick and likely doable, I ferment in my kettle and simply rack the beer to a keg, it's pretty easy IMO.
