keg king ****ing sucks

[stickyfinger]

i've had troubles with keg king quick disconnects on some of my kegs using both the gas and beverage fittings. is it just me or are the keg king disconnects shitty?! i'm going to buy CMB from now on...

New rubber orings can be squeeky tight. Helps to apply a little lube.

So, if it turns out to be you, will you feel bad about the thread title?

ha ha! i would feel bad if that were the case. i don't think that is the problem though. i could easily pop on my CM Becker disconnect. Must be a slight manufacturing difference making the Keg King ones a PITA!

Keg King is a cheapo-brand, so you get what you pay for..

View attachment 601224 is this the one?

hard to say. it will say "keg king" on the side. The CMBecker ones say CMB I think. The really generic ones have nothing written on them!

Does it have Ball locks

Can't you get these stainless ball lock disconnects in the USA?

They about twice the price of the CMB plastic disconnects but you only have to buy them once.

[shrug] I have over 30 CMB disconnects in service and have never had one fail...

Cheers!
