Fitting types

Connection solutions for KEGs in beverage distribution

Fitting types refer to the various standardised connection types for KEGs that are used for dispensing and filling beverages. The fitting is the central connecting element between the KEG and the dispensing system - its design determines which dispensing head a container is compatible with.

Several types have become established in the beverage industry, which vary depending on the region, product or bottler.
