Title: Beer/Gas disconnects and line
Post by: Ciaran on April 12, 2017, 11:47:16 PM
Wondering where everyone is sourcing good quality disconnects and line at the moment?  Just been stung by the cheap imports from ebay and now need to return them as they don't fit properly.

Kegkingdom.co.uk is quite good , but there's no one stop shop for everything which is annoying.

Yeah I like the idea of those too and would be very tempted but the only thing putting me off is I can't tell if you can get them threaded for JG fittings.

Hbc disconnects are CBT brand, these are excellent quality. There is lesser quality going around, they have an s in a circle on them, I have difficulty getting a good seal with these but not with the cbt ones

Yeah i got cheap ones from geterbrewed and they went in the bin, i was planning on using them for cleaning after i discovered how bad they were but they weren't even suitable for that.

I ordered a couple off them recently and when they arrived they were CMBs. Can't go wrong with them.

I got mine from Norm on eBay.

I bought all my fittings from http://www.stonehelm.co.uk/Equipment/BeerLineandFittings
They seem to have every fitting possible.
They will only post within the UK , but will send to parcel motel no problem.
