Comes with a back nut, plastic collar, hex nut, and a 1/4" barb. Requires a 1" hole saw for installation. When set in place, the shank will only have about 2 1/2" of length to pass through your wall or fridge door, due to the length of the collar and back nut.


Installation note: On a fridge there is 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.

Dimensions:

  • 5-1/8" - Total Length (Tip to Tip)
  • 4" - Shank Length (Without Nut & Barb)
  • 3" - Thread Length
  • 2-1/2" - Pass Through Length

Kegland Part number: KL01113

Fixed me leak

To save a few bucks I purchased a cheaper non-Intertap shank for my Intertap faucets. First keg tapped and it was nothing but leaks no matter what I did to fix it. I purchased the Intertap shank and success! No more leaks. I would have given 5 stars but I think the shanks are way overpriced.

Looks good works good not entirely stainless

Has some chrome pieces on the outside (to connect to faucet). Won't touch your beer but not strictly stainless

faucet shanks

i used these to re-do my keezer and i really like the way the ends turn down. helps keep the hoses out of the way very nice feature.

Okay but inter tap as a whole could have done better

The shank spins when I installed it through my fridge wall. The worst part is that the inter tap faucet oring if tightened to where you think it should be causes the beer not to flow past the flow control mechanism. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the shank or the faucet but if they are from the same manufacturer I would think that they would fit properly and always work. I have to gently tighten the ring until I see restriction of the beer when open full and the turn it back to get the full flow.

Intertap Shank - 4"

This is a quality shank that I can recommend. Like most others it comes with the cheap looking black plastic collar. I replaced it with the SS collar sold separately. If you are using a Duotight fitting with this the following may be helpful. I understand there is a Duotight fitting compatible with the Intertap connection but I prefer 1 fitting to the 2 required with that setup. My serving fridge is a chest freezer with a wood collar. The collar is made with a 2X and a 1X. A 4" faucet shank is just long enough with the supplied beer in fitting with this configuration. Longer shanks make access more challenging. However I decided to use the Duotight fitting. This fitting requires just a bit more shank than the 4 inch shank has to tighten. My solution was to create a 1/4 inch deep recess using a 1 1/2 inch Forstner bit. This allowed the faucet nut to tighten just enough to give the Duotight enough space to seal.

Works Well

I am using this on a cheaper tap (not Intertap yet) and it works great. No problems.

Great shank

Shank works great with inter tap faucet. I have this shank and a generic one on my keezer. I can say the main benefit to the inter tap shank is its compatibility with the self closing spring. The faucet doesn’t have much benefit over a generic if no spring is used. You can get the spring to work with a generic but it’s an extremely tight fit in my experience and I’ll probably end up replacing it with another intertap eventually. Imo worth the extra cost if using the spring.

Works well

Got this to use with the return springs. Also installed a spring on a non Intertap shank and it worked too. Non Intertap shank has more spring tension which I prefer for my heavier tap handles.

Is there a 3/16" barb that's compatible with this shank?

MoreCoffee!

No but almost all 1/4 inch barbs will fit both 3/16 id and 1/4 in ID tubing. I just heat the tubing up a little with hot water and press it on. It's not to hard to do. Carl G Burke VA

MoreCoffee!

Good afternoon I miked up my barbed connections they are 0.287 thousandths. 3/16 would be 0.187 thousandths. Maybe more beer can answer your question better than I. John

My keezer is setup for 3/16" beer line. Do you sell compatible 3/16" barbs? I don't want to triple my beer line length to use 1/4" barbs.

MoreCoffee!

I had the same concern when I bought this shank. I already had the 3/16" line sold by MoreBeer installed. I soaked the end of the line in hot water for 3-4 mins. (seems like I microwaved a coffee cup of water for 2 mins or so) That loosened the hose enough to slide on the barb. It has been on there for 11 mos with NO issues. Hope this helps.

MoreCoffee!

I am using these with 3/16” lines. The fit is just fine.

MoreCoffee!

Got 3/16" lines on mine. If you have trouble fitting it just soften the end of the line by dipping it in hot water for about 20-30 seconds.

Can I hook a flare fitting to the end of this shank by removing the barb? Do I need any special parts?

MoreCoffee!

Hi Seth - You can swap out the barb for item # D1726.

I ordered this and the intertap chrome faucet. Do I need to purchase any other gaskets or o-rings for the shank or faucet or does it comes with those?

MoreCoffee!

The one I ordered came with everything needed.

MoreCoffee!

Everything needed was included with mine just needed a tap handle and hose. CHEERS!

MoreCoffee!

You will need the tool to tighten the collar to the faucet but this gets you from tap to nipple.

MoreCoffee!

Hi Robert no additional gaskets or o-rings are needed for the initial set up. We offer a seal and gasket kit for the Intertap faucets when replacing is needed.

What size spade bit did you all use to get this shank in a 2x6?

MoreCoffee!

Hi John - I would recommend a 7/8" bit. OD of shank measures .873" 7/8 bit to decimal is .875 which should make for a nice tight fit.

What size beverage line works best with these and how long of a line for a 7.0 chest freezer/keezer?

MoreCoffee!

I have a 7.0 Chest Keezer and I used 5 foot of 3/16 line on my taps to kegs and get a good flow with around 6 lbs. of pressure. Your pressure to line length would depend on the height of the taps from the kegs and what temp you have the keezer at. I keep mine at 39 degrees… Good luck!

MoreCoffee!

I used 3/16 ID Beverage Tubing on my system with a small hose clamp . As a general rule of thumb you want at least 5 ft of beverage tubing from keg to tap to reduce foaming. Personally I run 6 ft at 8 pounds of CO2 and it flows very nice. I hope this helped!

Can this be used with a Perlick faucet?

MoreCoffee!

They are working with my Perlick faucets just fine.

MoreCoffee!

Yes I've bought two of these and both have Perlick faucets attached.

MoreCoffee!

Yes it can. I used this faucet shank with a perlick 630ss and at times a 650ss.

MoreCoffee!

Yes the shank threads are all the same thread size. The difference in faucets is the pouring tip. This shank fits standard perlick and intertap faucets.

MoreCoffee!

It can absolutely be used with a Perlick faucet. I ended up changing out my Perlicks with Intertaps after my Perlicks started to drip but that had nothing to do with the shank.

MoreCoffee!

Yes indeed! I’ve used this shank with Perlick several times and they work well together.
