The GROCO Part Number FBV-1000 is a high-quality 1-inch bronze tri-flanged ball valve and seacock designed for reliable performance in marine applications. Crafted from durable C83600 bronze, this valve features a chrome-plated solid brass ball and PTFE seats and seals, ensuring long-lasting corrosion resistance and smooth operation. The full flow design provides minimal pressure drop, making it suitable for demanding fluid control tasks onboard boats and ships. The tri-flanged configuration with a triangular base and bolt pattern allows for easy retrofit installation with most popular brands, simplifying upgrades or replacements. The handle is field reversible, allowing operators to select the most convenient closed position orientation, whether clockwise or counter-clockwise, which enhances versatility during installation and maintenance. Additionally, the handle has a square hole to accept a standard ratchet, facilitating operation in tight or hard-to-reach spaces and easing actuation of difficult valves. For valves measuring 1-1/4 inches and larger, a grease zerk fitting is included for lubrication—use only with the valve in the open position—along with a drain plug for maintenance. The zerk fitting can also be employed for draining purposes, providing added convenience. The bonding attachment on the base ensures secure mounting, and stainless steel hardware and handle components contribute to the valve's durability in harsh marine environments. The GROCO 1-inch bronze tri-flanged ball valve is an essential component for marine plumbing systems requiring a reliable, easy-to-operate, and corrosion-resistant seacock designed for long-term service.
