Product Overview
This is for four used Coke-style pin lock kegs. All kegs are pressure tested and all leaking O-Rings are replaced. Since they are used and reconditioned, the outside of a keg may have dings and scratches and other marks. The keg requires pin lock attachments for both gas and beer sides. It is a good idea to have a spare set of replacement o-rings always on hand and some keg o-ring lubricant. Lubricating the o-rings will help to make them last longer, but eventually they will become brittle and have to be replaced.An advantage of pin lock kegs versus ball lock is that the lid to a pin lock keg does not have a relief valve where leaks commonly occur. Ball lock kegs have a relief valve on the lid and this poses as potential point for CO2 gas to leak if the relief valve is not properly seated into position. With a leak around the relief valve, the CO2 tank will empty and the beer will lose its carbonation. Furthermore, a reconditioned ball lock keg will commonly cost around -35. A new relief valve for a reconditioned keg will cost an additional .00 dollars to replace. This is a total of approximately .00 spent on one ball lock keg. The user may not have to immediately replace the relief valve on a ball lock keg, but eventually the valve will break and need to be replaced. With a reconditioned pin lock keg, there is no additional expense because there is no relief valve.If the user needs to release the pressure from a pin lock keg, the use simply needs to attach an open disconnect to the keg and allow the gas to escape. Pin lock kegs cost less than ball lock, are easier to use, and easier to maintain leak free, plus you will never confuse the gas and liquid plugs or connections because of the different number of pins on each.
