Typical materials: 316 Stainless Steel

‘316’ refers to the grade of stainless steel used to manufacture the beer tap housings. It is a popular stainless steel alloy.

• Contains an addition of molybdenum, a metal that is highly resistant to corrosion. Beer tap housings from 316 offer better corrosion resistance over lower grades.
• Known for its toughness and ability to withstand high impact. Used to make stainless steel baskets, marine parts, chemical equipment, surgical instruments and outdoor electrical enclosures.
• Better longevity than lower grades of stainless steel. This added life expectancy optimizes your customers’ business costs.

Material composition:

• 16% chromium
• 10% nickel
• 2% molybdenum

Maximum use temperature: Around 800˚C (1,472˚F)

Tensile strength: 579 MPa (84 ksi)

Common MOQ: 1,000 pcs

Generally, standardized or common parts have higher MOQs. While MOQs are negotiable, buyers are advised to be reasonable about the numbers.

Manufacturing Methods(s): Investment Cast and Machining

• After the component is manufactured, it is machined to meet client’s exact specifications
• Precise components and intricate parts
• Consistent and repetitive close tolerances along with intricate passages and contours
• Accurate and smooth surfaces (a 125 micro finish is standard, and even finer finishes are achievable).

Manufacturing Cluster Area: Yuhuan (Taizhou)

Yuhuan is a city in Taizhou located along the coast of southeastern Zhejiang Province. Taizhou has world-class manufacturing clusters, notably in the automobile and pharmaceutical industries. Its automobile industry generates an output exceeding 100 billion yuan ($14.49 billion).

By the end of 2020, Taizhou aims to have 60 listed companies and 4,400 industrial companies, and nurture over 250 national-level high-tech companies and more than 1,000 provincial technological operations throughout the year.

By 2030, the city is targeting four world-leading industrial clusters in the automotive, healthcare, intelligent sewing equipment and high-end mold sectors. Five state-level industry clusters will be set up here. They will be involved in pumps and motors, high-end equipment, electronic information, aerospace and smart homes.

Yuhuan has a strong manufacturing sector. We have forged relationships with quality-driven manufacturers in the city. We’re familiar with the local dialects (besides Mandarin) and able to communicate your requirements effectively to the manufacturer chosen by you.

Application: Food and beverages industry

Beer dispensing systems are one of the key operational components for pubs, bars and restaurants that serve alcoholic drinks or specialize in craft beers. Beer tap housings are a functional part of beer dispensers, allowing commercial establishments to offer beer on tap.

Modern kegs and other beer dispensing systems are sterile stainless steel containers that have taps to drive out beer. They have a valve that controls the release of beer. The food and beverages industry seeks economical beer dispensing to ensure minimal wastage. Beer taps and faucets are an effective way to control the pour and slow it for smaller sample pours.

Beer taps are easy to handle and clean. They are generally low maintenance and suitable for mechanical cleaning without the need to dismantle the system.

Common Issues: Surface Finish

Chinese factories use polished stainless steel to manufacture beer tap housings. You’re assured a smooth finish with no burrs or edges.

Quality Control

• Thread and bore gauges to check thread size and pitch diameter
• Visual inspection against known good parts.
