Tap problem!

[Jamie1983]

Hi guys im brewibg the last 4 months and i am currently building my own keyser for storing 3 corny kegs. I bought a tap handle on craigslist and i am unable to find a suitable connection.. any tap i have come across has threading to screw onto the tap, but this has a type of pin with a screw connection on the side that unscrews the pin.. any help on how to fit this or even the name of the connection much apreciated. Im also based in Ireland im thinkibg this system might be more common in Ireland and UK.

I think you need a minimum of 20 posts as there is a restriction on new members as some just join to sell and other things.

@Jamie1983 I don't think that Miller handle goes with that tap. The Miller handle would have come off a dedicated advertising font, whereas the tap is a common or garden chinese made kegerator tap (I don't mean that as an insult, just that they are very common and a very typical choice of kegerator or keezer tap). It has a ball lock disconnect in the final photo but the collar in the first photo is for connecting it to a tap shank for use in a kegerator or keezer.

There may be people more knowledgeable than me out there, but I very much doubt there is a way of properly connecting the Miller handle to the tap (without bodging it) as it was meant for the font it came off.

Sorry man i posted that as an example of the screw on connection compared to the other! Im wondering is there some sort of compatible connection or a type of faucet that makes these connections. Also with that chinese faucet ( no insult taken!!) Im unsure about how to go about hooking up a beer line as the connection threaded for a gas connection. Unless there is sone type of john guest that connects from beer line with a threaded bit to screw into the faucet. I might scrap that faucet! I got a better one ( in pic)but plan is to have 3 taps for 3 kegs so maybe ill fibd a faucet to fix the miller tap
