This chrome plated brass beer shank features a back nut, plastic collar, and welded 3/16" nipple, making it a popular choice for building custom draft systems in refrigerator doors or converted chest freezer collars.
Installation Note: On a fridge there are generally no coolant lines running through the door but please check to see there are no lines connecting the door and the rest of the refrigerator. To test for coolant lines on a freezer start with a warm freezer then plug the unit in with the lid open. You should be able to see the lines form condensation on the inside of the freezer where there are lines running. Please still use caution when drilling.
The shank's listed size refers to the total length of threaded pipe. Approximately 1-1/8" are needed to account for the thickness of the finishing collar on the front and the space for the locknut on the back. Please take this into account when sizing the shank for your project.
