all right, I have to change my vote. After taking off the weldless fittings on my boil keggle and MLT they started leaking. I tried everything to get them to seal but the o-rings kept squishing out and not even a machined locknut kept it from leaking. I've been using these kegs for about 6 months without leaks. I finally bit the bullet and took the two kegs down to the LHBS to have them welded up. Cost me $25 each which included the SS 1/2" coupler. A bit steep, but I don't know anyone else who welds stainless.
I still have a weldless fitting on my HLT, which has never leaked on me. I assume this is because I never need to take it off. We'll see how long that lasts .
