Default Fittings for Cleaning

Does any one know of any fittings that are available for the hooking up of beer fittings to clean the system. Ive seen the plastic ones and I am not impressed, also the ones mounted on a board or cart look to be awful cumbersome.
I have heard of a company in Ohio that makes their own fittings and can hook up to 30 lines at one time.

Thanks

Which beer fittings are you referring to and are you using pressurized pots or circulation pumps? Check out these cleaning accessories.

Be careful of setting up a system just to make cleaning easier. Hopefully the end result will be clean draft lines.

How many lines do you want to hook up? When I was cleaning lines, our system could do 20 lines at a time using a circulation pump. It worked great but fairly expensive to build. Are you in the cleaning business or just want to do your own?

Im looking at regular Sankey style or domestic style of beer tap fitting. We do use a circulating pump that we build ourselves.
The plastic fittings on a board do not look very durable to me, not to mention the amount of space they seem to take up.
Im not looking for an easier way to clean, just more cost effective, with less chance of error. We have been in business for over 65 yeras.

Check out these fittings. There are metal caps that can be mounted on the wall. These would be a special order.
