Disconnects For Rheem Kegs

[matt white]

Anyone know where I can source a two pin pinlock disconnect for the old 19 litre rheem coca-cola kegs. The old stainless steel ones with either a white or black band around the middle of the disconnect.

I tried the plastic red ones that Ross sells but they are too big.



Anyone?

Cheers,

Gil

As per the lettering on the ring if they made yours.

They are expensive, and so is postage from them.

Your local HBS should be able to order them in for you or you can get them from Andale.

There has been over the last couple of months a very sharp increase in the price of all keg parts, now that Cornelius have stoped making kegs they regard the parts as spares and have just about doubled the prices.

The same with the Australian made parts, if you ring around you might find someone that has old stock, could save you $20-30 per disconnect.

Good info there. It's been over 5 years since I spoke to them.

A bit off topic, did a bit of a Google, what does this mean? -
