Converting Co2 Lines from Sanke to Cornelius

[Ringo311]

If I buy a CO2 tank thats set up for commercial kegs, what part do I need to convert the lines to ball lock corny kegs? Any red flags for the conversion? New to kegging.

The tank and regulator is the same for either one.

The connection to the keg itself is the only difference between the two setups. Remove the gas line and beer line from the Sanke connector and install the individual ball lock or pin lock connectors depending on what kegs you have.

Better question is why not just use a Sanke...There better in every way. That being said everything is the same between Sanke and Cornys except the what you put on the end of the hose to connect to keg

You'll need to cut the end off the co2 connection line and replace it with a grey "IN" (co2) ball-lock connector

Clamp down HARD on the barb fitting and test for leaks

If you convert all your lines to barbed 1/4" FFL you can use the FFL to keg connection and swap back n forth from Ball lock to Sanke as needed.
