If you are using your coupler with an existing draft setup, you may not need the extra hardware listed below.  For example, with an existing draft setup, the beer shank hex nut, barbed tail piece and neoprene washer are usually already attached to the beer line, which travels to the beer faucet.  If you are setting up a new draft line, then you will most likely need the items listed below.

• Beer Shank Hex Nut
