Refurbished Ball Lock Corny Keg - The Best Used Corny Keg

Refurbished Ball Lock Corny Kegs Restored to Like New Condition

These are Grade A refurbished corny kegs made of 304 Stainless Steel. As stainless steel prices continue to rise and as good used kegs become harder and harder to find, you won't want to miss out on this opportunity. These kegs are all Italian made and are Euro sized at 18L+

These kegs have been fully refurbished. They have been thoroughly cleaned, machine polished and have had the o-rings replaced on the lid, PRV, liquid and gas dip tubes along with 2 o-rings on each post. In addition, these kegs are all premium brands: AEB / SAFER / CORNELIUS.

An overview of our keg refurbishing process:

1. Kegs are hand-selected from inventory. Any kegs with medium/large dents and blemishes are not considered.
2. After the initial selection, the kegs are disassembled and all o-rings are removed.
3. The kegs and all components are cleaned with food-grade agents while they are disassembled, note that poppets are not removed from the post in this step, however, we do a pressurized, under water leak test every post. If any posts are found to be leaking, the poppet is then removed and replaced with a new one with new o-ring. 
4. After washing, any tape, glue and stickers are removed from the outside of the keg.
5. Polishing - the keg is placed on a proprietary machine that polishes the outside of the keg.
6. After polishing, any kegs that need further work are manually polished (approximately 10-15% of the kegs that we work with).
7. All parts are reassembled with new o-rings. The leak-free posts from the prior step do not have poppet o-rings replaced.
8. Keg lids are polished. Wire handles are straighted (if necessary)
9. Final manual polish of keg to maximize exterior look.
10. The kegs are reassembled.
11. Kegs are pressurized to 3 BAR (43.5 psi) and set aside for 24 hours. Pressure is checked after 24 hours to confirm no leaks.

After this 11-step refurbishing process, our kegs are labeled as ready to ship.

Additional notes about our refurbished kegs

These kegs are previously used, they may have some small dings and scratches that cannot be removed during our polishing and refurbish process. There may be some very small dents, but nothing that compromises use.

These kegs may contain some residue from the cleaning and polishing process. This polishing residue may be on both the outer keg shell and/or the rubber tops and bottoms of the kegs. This can get on your hands, but this is just a reminder that all kegs (new and used) should be thoroughly washed prior to use. Additionally, all kegs should be properly sanitized before coming in contact with your beer or beverage.

A percentage of the kegs will have had sun damage to the rubber tops/bottoms to the point where the rubber is no longer sealed. This can result in the rubber leaving black marks (typically when wet, not as big of a problem when dry).

Some of the kegs may have 2 o-rings on the posts - this may seem unusual, but they work just as kegs/posts with single o-rings.
