I find myself needing to replace the collars that connect to the taps (they aren't damaged yet, but the few that we can't loosen with the wrench (the holes are stripping out) will be once we put the pliers to them.. The tap system goes through the wall into the cold room behind. Obviously we have to pull the shanks to get at the collars. Being geniuses during buildout, we bent the tubes 90 degrees on the back side since they are too long. So to uninstall we will have to unbend them, pull them out from the front, and slide the collars off.
The question is, once unbent, I'd need to cut them shorter past then unbent bends, BUT then the barbs on the tubes would be gone and when I connect the beer line, I'm not sure they will hold pressure. Thoughts on if this would work?
