works well, but it tends to chew up o-rings
High quality stainless quick disconnects
Solid QD that I have used for years with no issues. Really appreciate the tubing going at a 90° angle on these.
The torpedo brand stainless ball locks are 10 times better than the next best solution. To be frank, there is no comparison to the competitors garbage. Love these. Smooth operation and leak free connection.
I will eventually replace all of my plastic connectors
This is a high quality disconnect and works well. I like that it works with stacked kegs! Make sure to use the plastic washer or the flare fitting will leak.
These are made extremely well, will last a lifetime !
High quality construction with SS. These are not marked out or in... No stickers, etched in and out markings would make the look even better . Unless you have both side by side, it's is difficult to tell out or in.. Nothing a sharpie can't fix.
Great build quality. One of four pieces purchased for the part tap.
I had bought other Stainless ball locks from another place and neither the in or out fit correctly. i bought the out of one of these and it works perfectly..just wish it said "out" on it. its blank so if i had two it'd be impossible to tell them apart quickly.
Not every one of these is actually the same size. Tolerances vary.
These work very well and are a nice upgrade from plastic connectors.
They are too heavily constructed. It’s a bit odd statement, but true none-the-less. There could be some more machining to get the weight down more. The product could also benefit from tumbling with a course substrate to make it less raw.
I love the stainless disconnects but the "Out" version does not have the graphics as shown. It's a small thing that doesn't effect operation but I like uniformity and would like to see the product match the picture.
Outstanding product wish I would have purchased this to start with goes on and off the post with no binding or having to use excessive force as I had to with the plastic connector
Well made. Allows me to mount a good quality faucet on top of a ball lock and still fit in the refrigerator. One less hose per keg, and no holes through the side.
Fits/looks great on my 1.5 gal torpedo keg. Be sure to pick up anflare washer!
Looks good and fells pretty sturdy and well made.
The first ball lock shipped to me was very difficult to fit. I had to put the keg upside down and push in order to get it to click in. I mentioned this to MoreBeer and they were kind enough to send out another and it fits perfectly. Thanks MoreBeer.
Bought these to use on the top of the TrailKeg growlers. Certainly not necessary, but adds a nice and relatively inexpensive touch over the plastic ball lock options.
So much better than plastic!!! Upgrade now!
Fitting has less tendency than the plastic ones to stick after a keg of beer has passed through. I bought two sets for my kegerator and all four failed to seal at the check valve. I had to drill out and polish the seats. Most would have to send them back. When they seal they offer positive seating and do work with cornys.
To be transparent, I bought this to use with my first time kegging. And It is working well so far. No leaking, etc. But I wouldn't necessarily be the expert on what other typical flaws to look for in these things, but I am happy with this one.
I’m going to replace all my plastic ball lock fittings with these. Better fit and seal.
These were not a LIFESAVER, per se... but pretty close as far as homebrewing. I purchased a large chest freezer, which was awesome in every way.. EXCEPT would not close with regular disconnects. The lid closed right over the corny handles. With these, because they are not only low profile, but have horizontal connects, I was able to get them on the kegs AND still close my lid. Tighten with a wrench, as the connections can leak if only done by hand. So far so good with these disconnects!! Thanks, MoreBeer!
My old plastic disconnects. These are flawless, heavy duty SS disconnects.
I bought a bunch of the torpedo kegs last year because the price and stacking ability. So the next step was to get the disconnects. I bought one set to check out and see if I wanted to get more of them. they feel well made, but like oldmandan's comments, the beer QD had NO LABELING as the description says it would. It also was a bit beat up. The Gas QD did have the labeling and no scratches or anything.I am trying them out right now and comparing them to my standard QDs, so will update once I get a bit of usage out of them and have a chance to take them apart to see how friendly that piece is.
Got four of these when they got back in stock. Arrived in a timely manner but none were labeled in or out as described in the product description. The also didn't appear to be new but maybe reconditioned. Had scratches and scars and one had a rounded out allen head on top. I'll see how they work and update this review.
Fittings work great, and are low-profile enough to permit Torpedo kegs to stack while connected.Best price I've found on stainless couplers, and they're well-made.j
Do you have a hyperlinks to the o-rings necessary to rebuild these ball-locks?
