Hello,

I purchased a draft tower and one of the shanks has two big chips in the flat part that the faucet seals against. I'm new to kegging, but I can't imagine that a faucet will seal against the shank if there is a small channel that beer can leak out. Can anyone comment on whether it is normal or not? The other two shanks do not look like this. One can be found at approximately 7:00 and the other approximately 2:00 in the picture.

I'd appreciate comments on whether or not this will be a problem.
