B3 deal on quick disconnects...

Post by bwarbiany »

I saw "25% off" and was excited, but then realized it's only a reduction from $10 to $7.50...

So it's not very worth it if you're just buying 1. But if you're looking to buy a bunch of these for a brewery upgrade, today would be a good day to do it.

I use these QD's and they work well, although if I were doing my brewery today I'd go with tri clover fittings:

For the price, the camlock cam and groove fittings really can't be beat and are arguably more sanitary than the B3 SS quick connects. Although the QD's are probably just a little easier to work. I have the comparable part for only $4.25 every day and the mating couplers run $6.25 on average.

Note that his MoreBeer "Deal of the Day" is only for the male side of the QD. This is NOT a set!

I have these on my rig and love them - but they were pricey!

I use these cam lock connectors and am very satisified with performance. Tri clover are the ultimate, but if you are on a budget, go see Derrin for these items

Oh yeah. PayPal, major C/C or if you're coming to get them and not ordering from the site, check or cash.

I'm using the stainless QDs from MoreBeer now and I love them. If they ever wear out, I will switch to the camlock ones. Those are pretty sweet, plus they look like little fire hose fittings and I always wanted to be a fireman. K:-)
