This chrome-plated brass faucet cleaning adapter is a specialized fitting designed to bridge the gap between your beverage discharge hardware and your cleaning manifold. By threading directly onto the standard 1-1/8" - 18 faucet threads of a draught tower or shank, this adapter allows you to bypass the beer faucet itself and connect a 5/16" ID cleaning line. This configuration is essential for performing high-velocity recirculating cleans or pressurized flushes on Sanke-style draft systems and kegerators.

  • Inlet Connection: Standard Male Beer Faucet Thread (1-1/8" - 18 UNEF)
  • Outlet Connection: 5/16" OD Hose Barb
  • Material: Durable Chrome-Plated Brass for corrosion resistance
  • Application: Direct-to-shank cleaning for towers, walk-in wall shanks, and jockey boxes
  • Compatibility: Fits all standard North American beer shanks and faucet couplings
  • Function: Facilitates "back-flushing" or forward-flushing without faucet restriction
Technician's Note: When performing a line clean, it is always best practice to remove the faucet and use this adapter instead of pushing chemicals through the tap. Faucets have internal nooks and "blind spots" where yeast and mold can hide; by using this 5/16" barb adapter, you ensure a full-bore, turbulent flow through the shank and jumper lines, which is significantly more effective at mechanically dislodging beer stone (calcium oxalate) than a low-pressure faucet soak.
