Hiwi – spare parts and accessories for Hiwi CO2 regulators
Hiwi CO2 regulators from Euskirchen in Germany are discontinued and can no longer be bought. This page covers spare parts and accessories for the Hiwi regulators you already own: a wing nut with hose tail and seal, an O-ring for the CO2 inlet, holders that mount a Sodastream cylinder and regulator directly on a corny keg, and a CO2 bottle holder. New CO2 regulators are listed under Oxyturbo.
Finding the right part for your Hiwi regulator
Outlet: Hiwi regulators have a 3/4" thread on the outlet. The wing nut is 3/4" with a 9.3 mm hose tail and comes with a seal.
Inlet: The standard regulators have a W21.8 thread that fits European CO2 cylinders. The CO2 inlet O-ring is a spare part for these regulators.
Sodastream: the Hiwi Sodastream regulator screws onto a Sodastream or AGA cylinder from below when the cylinder sits in the holder.
Cylinder holders for corny kegs
The holders for a Sodastream cylinder, picnic beer line set and Hiwi regulator attach to the top ring of a corny keg. One version fits standard corny kegs, one fits the 23-litre AEB keg. The holder stops the cylinder tipping over, and a separate hook keeps the line set with picnic tap ready. The holders are 3D printed in Norway. If you have an Oxyturbo Minor regulator, matching holders for it are listed under Kegs and CO2.
Frequently asked questions about Hiwi CO2 regulators
Why must the CO2 cylinder stand upright?
A CO2 cylinder contains liquid CO2. If it tips over while the regulator is connected, liquid CO2 can enter the regulator and damage it. The keg-mounted holders are made to prevent this.
What threads does a Hiwi CO2 regulator have?
The inlet has a W21.8 thread for standard European CO2 cylinders, and the outlet has a 3/4" thread for the wing nut with hose tail.
Which hose fits the Hiwi regulator?
The wing nut has a 9.3 mm hose tail. You need a gas hose that fits the hose tail, secured with a hose clamp.
Are Hiwi CO2 regulators still available?
No. Hiwi regulators are discontinued, but spare parts and accessories for them are still listed here. Under Oxyturbo you will find CO2 regulators with one and two outlets for standard cylinders, and regulators for Sodastream and AGA cylinders.
