* The vast majority (99%) of Firestone Ball Lock Kegs on the market use the same post except for the original Challenger, which had “racetrack” style lids. Racetrack style lids had straight sides like a race track and are rare. All other kegs had standard rounded sides. 

Not sure how to determine what keg you have? Look on the side and it should have the name stamped in the stainless steel. On some Pin Locks the brand is on the bottom. Still need help? Contact us using [email protected] or 325-356-5204
