Marine Bronze Ball Valve

The Groco IBV-2500 is a 2-1/2 inch BSPP full-flow in-line ball valve built for marine plumbing systems. It handles fuel or water service on commercial and recreational vessels where reliable shut-off is required.

Reversible Handle and Ratchet Access

A patented field-reversible handle lets the installer choose clockwise or counter-clockwise closure to suit the layout. The handle includes a square hole that accepts a standard ratchet for actuation in confined spaces. Stainless steel hardware and a chrome-plated solid brass ball resist corrosion, while PTFE seats and seals maintain a tight seal. A zerk fitting allows lubrication or draining without disassembly.

400 WOG Pressure Rating

The valve carries a 400 WOG rating and UL listing for fuel or water, confirming it meets the pressure demands of typical marine supply lines. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
