A draft beer faucet may look like a pretty basic piece of equipment but we know that there is no such thing as “unimportant” when it comes to beer dispensing.
The standard beer faucet is made of brass or chrome-plated brass. It features a ⅜’’ threaded lever for tap handles that pull forward to pour and push back to stop the flow of beer. It attaches to the shank or tower via a coupling nut and tightens with a spanner wrench.

The beer shank serves as a transition point between the faucet and the beer line. It conducts cold perfectly allowing you to maintain the proper temperature of beer as it flows all the way from the keg to the beer tower.
As with beer faucets, shanks come in two main varieties:
