Subject: Thinkness of Sanke Keg?
Does anybody know what the thickness is of the metal at the top of a
Sanke keg? I cut a hole in the top of a keg (legally obtained from a
local microbrewery!), and want to put some gasket material around it.

Does anyone have a micrometer to get an accurate measurement?

Thanks!

I measured 0.050" with a dial caliper.
