    I'm trying to look for some Tri clamps to purchase but I'm a little stumped on what I need. I've cut the bottom of my Anhauser Busch kegs and I'm looking for Tri clamps to go over the mouth of the top of the keg. The OD measures 2.5" and 2.0" ID. I've been told that I will need 2" fittings for this. I'm just trying to see if anyone has this set-up that can help me order the right items.

    Are you talking about connecting to the top of the sanke fitting? If so, then yes 2" triclamp will fit it, though you need a gasket that has one smooth side

    Are you turning the kegs upside down and using the top sanke fitting to do a bottom drain? If not you really should

    Yes, I am turning them upside down. I found a really good website yesterday that I ordered a bunch of hardware from.

    Brewers hardware is correct, sorry for the delay.
