Keg Coupler, D System, Nickel

I was nervous for the installation of this as I hadn't installed any keg couplers before (someone else had installed my current ones but they were driving me crazy) and the reviews on this were mixed on these being great but difficult to install unless you knew what you were doing. Per another very helpful review, it can be done with some minor, simple maneuvering. I cut my current gas and beer lines from their current configurations with scissors. For the gas line, I was able to put it on the new one and use the previous clamp to seal it. For the beer line, it was a bit too small but per another review, I used a heat gun (I'm sure a blow dryer set to high and some patience will do) to soften the tube and it allowed it to fit around the other end and I used another hose clamp to seal that side. You'll likely want to purchase some sort of a hose clamp if you don't already have them as I wouldn't trust it on it's own even though it did feel snug, that extra security is worth it in my opinion. It's more expensive than other couplers but other low profile coupler's just don't work well and spill all over the place when trying to get it on so this is very worth the bit of extra money for ease of use and less headache and waste of product.

Works good, I did not have a lot of headroom for the tapper and this fits nicely

I was skeptical because of the reviews where people stated that the original fittings did not fit, I still went to purchase these and, you need to modify your system meaning, cut off your connections and start to heat up your tubes.... This unit is a little harder to clean, but it's worth it because of the clearance as well as the amount of foam, that no longer comes out. I do not know why kegerator, made all their kegs not fit, it's kind of irritating but that's how it is. These couplers fix all those issues, I am putting pictures so that people can see more or less what I had to do, this is what you need to do and it's a little bit of a curve, because you need to know how to deal with piping, specifically fittings, if it doesn't fit, and you can make it fit, that's a good sign! Look at mine. For your CO2 lines, make sure that you are paying attention and connecting it to the side that has the release valve, I do not know why people think that installing a beer line, where the release for air pressurization is at, is where it needs to go, please ignore those comments, because they're not paying attention to the actual fittings and the actual intake for the lines ( this is why you need to know what you're doing ) I wish Amazon had more of a community, so that I couldn't post an entire diagram as well as answer questions for anybody having problems, but please look at the pictures I took as best as I could with these cuz I know people that don't want to get these because of the reviews, are really missing out on good quality beer as well as life-saving time, that is right, life saving time because those old couplers that barely fit, took forever to properly get three kegs inside without losing too much of a temperature dip This is a whole new science within its own, but it is very worth it because I no longer have to go to a bar, and we now just cook our own little snacks in the backyard. I do hope that these pictures and this review helps everybody, make sure that you are paying attention to the CO2 and the beer line, and be sure to heat up your piping so that you can fit it in and then tie it down with a coupler of your choice

They used non standard hose fittings for low profile coupler. Why? Had to return

Worked great - much easier to get keg in and out of kegerator

Worked well with kegerator

I have used this several times and it works flawlessly. I have not had a single leak. I could not use the taps that originally shipped with my kegerator because when attached, the barrel plus tap wouldn't fit. Installing these made it fit nicely. They were easy to attach but make sure you give yourself some extra length in the lines. The longer lines allow you flexibility when tapping the keg.

I would have given all 5's but they should have included extra line adapters for the two sizes of lines used.
