More about food safe materials:

For whatever reason, it’s difficult to find food safe keg o-rings.  Maybe some of the o-rings that are available are food safe, but very few are actually labeled as such.

The fact is we’re putting beer (food) in our kegs and we should be using food safe materials whenever we can.  More Info: Food Safe Replacement Keg O-Rings

Oversize Keg Lid O-Ring – for leaky lids + Save w/Sitewide Sale

Updated: December 8, 2024

Oversize Keg Lid O-Ring from William’s Brewing.

Fits all brands of kegs, pin-lock or ball-lock, with a 3 by 3.5” clamp down oval lid. “
