Thread size on mini kegs lid

[pirateagenda]

Does anyone know what the thread size is on the mini kegs like ikegger, beerkat etc is?

I have asked the suppliers for this in the past as I wanted to add the head with gas and liquid posts to a fermenter but they tell me it's a custom. I doubt it is however.

Try dropping the suppliers a line, they may help.

husky thats pretty much what I had in mind. Otherwise I think i'll just get a 2 inch to 4 inch tri clover adaptor and put the posts in a 4 inch end cap. either that or a 2" tee.

You also need to know the thread form i.e. flank angle and root & crest shape. You don't need the TPI as you already have the pitch (1.5mm). If you have one (OP) take the lid to a machinist/fitter/tool maker and they will tell you what you need and an probably make it for you as well.

In metric they don't use TPI it is just the pitch with that diameter and the pitch it is metric fine thread 35mm thread T/D size 33.5 pitch 1.5

Those measurements would suggest its a ~M35x1.5

Beat me to it

The blog is interesting as well 'How to repair a gauge' and 'How to clean the growler'
Don't look at the pricing though. h34r:
