1/16 / .0625 / 16 gaugeJust a note all kegs are NOT created equal they will vary my manufacture or how they were manufactured. The 14 15/16 diameter in most cases will be below the bottom seam. Thats where they welded the bottom and bottom rim to the keg. The hole I put for pickup is center to the diameter of the false bottom. Sometimes (most times) when a coupler is welded into the side of a keg it will NOT line up to the center. The Coupler can be lined up with a little muscle and a length of pipe, it won't be off much.Dominus VobiscumSwagmanIs this the thick stuff? 16 ga.?

Man, nice price. I think I would need a hinge though to get it past the 'lip' that is around the top where SABCO cut it right?1/16 / .0625 / 16 gaugeJust a note all kegs are NOT created equal they will vary my manufacture or how they were manufactured.

A hinge will work I don't like to lose the surface area here is how we get around it if we don't take off the rim.Or this wayThis last way takes a bit of work and you have to be super careful with the cut off wheelDominus VobiscumSwagmanMan, nice price.
