Product Description

The Krome 1" Metal Shank Spacer (12K03167) is a versatile, commercial-grade hardware component designed to provide precise spacing and structural support for draft beer faucet assemblies. Precision-machined and finished in a high-polish chrome plating, this 1-inch spacer acts as a universal extension, allowing technicians to bridge gaps when mounting standard shanks to flat surfaces, draft towers, or thinner-walled cooler panels where the shank threads would otherwise be exposed or loose.

Engineered for durability in high-volume beverage environments, the heavy-duty metal construction prevents the "flex" or wobbling often associated with plastic spacers. This ensures a rigid, professional-looking faucet mounting that maintains its alignment over thousands of pulls. Its universal design makes it compatible with nearly all standard 7/8"-14 thread beer shanks, making it an essential "save-the-day" part for custom taproom builds or draft system refurbishments.

Draught Tech Pro-Tip: When mounting faucets through thin metal plates or custom keezer collars, a common issue is the shank nut "bottoming out" before the assembly is tight. Using this 1" metal spacer provides the necessary offset to ensure the flange is pulled flush and tight against the mounting surface. For a 100% professional finish, we recommend applying a thin bead of food-grade sealant behind the spacer to prevent condensation or moisture from seeping behind your tap wall or tower.
