Solid Steel Tap Handles
Solid steel tap handles, laser cut from a solid sheet of steel. These heavy duty tap handles can be made from 1/2" thick steel up to 1" thick steel. Any simple shape is possible, and if the tap is 5/8" or thicker we can drill and tap the steel so that your new handle can screw directly on to the tap without the need for any ferrules or coupling nuts. All of our steel tap handles are coated with powder paint for a durable and highly customizable finish. Almost any color is possible, as well as clear powder coat for a brushed steel look.
