I bought several of these beer shanks back in 2015. I took it apart recently to clean.
Since the description says it’s stainless steel I figured I could clean the rust off of the barb insert. Looks like it wasn’t made of stainless steel.
Should I just reuse this thing or get a new one? If so I need the specs on this part so I will know what I need to buy.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

If you want to reuse it - look if it is plated scrape it with knife if if it reveals another layer of metal.
It looks like it is chrome plated material-copper-nickel-chrome and you scrubbed first 2 layers.
