The valve body is constructed of C83600 bronze for corrosion resistance, with a chrome plated solid brass ball and PTFE seats and seals to maintain a tight, full flow shutoff over time. Female NPT threads on both ends allow it to be plumbed directly inline with matching bronze fittings and hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stainless steel handle and hardware are designed for durability in a marine environment, and the handle itself has a square hole that accepts a standard ratchet, making it easier to actuate the valve in tight or hard to reach locations where a hand alone cannot get enough leverage. The valve also offers selectable handle rotation, so the handle orientation can be set to suit the installation. It is UL listed for use with fuel or water, and it fits the Groco IBVF fitting for seacock applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Groco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e IBVL-1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inline Locking Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/2 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e C83600 Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome Plated Solid Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeats and Seals:\u003c\/strong\u003e PTFE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Square hole accepts a standard ratchet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Rotation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Selectable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e UL Listed for Fuel or Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits Groco IBVF for seacock application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full Flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 742985144927\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Groco IBVL-1500 valve?\u003c\/strong\u003e The IBVL-1500 is a 1-1\/2 inch NPT valve with female threads on both ends, built for inline installation in a fuel or water line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the IBVL-1500 rated for fuel or just water?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is UL listed for use with either fuel or water, so the same IBVL-1500 valve can be used on either type of line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the valve body made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The IBVL-1500 body is constructed of C83600 bronze, chosen for its corrosion resistance in marine service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the handle and hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e The handle and hardware on the IBVL-1500 are stainless steel for durability aboard a boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the ball inside the valve made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e Inside the IBVL-1500, the ball is chrome plated solid brass, paired with PTFE seats and seals for a tight shutoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the handle have a square hole in it?\u003c\/strong\u003e The square hole in the IBVL-1500 handle accepts a standard ratchet, which gives extra leverage to operate the valve when it is mounted in a hard to reach location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the handle position be adjusted?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the IBVL-1500 has selectable handle rotation so it can be set to the orientation that works best for the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this valve work with the Groco IBVF fitting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the IBVL-1500 fits the Groco IBVF for seacock applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the IBVL-1500 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Groco IBVL-1500 weighs 3.8 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the IBVL-1500 a full flow valve?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the IBVL-1500 is a full flow inline locking valve, meaning it does not restrict flow when fully open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat thread type does the IBVL-1500 use?\u003c\/strong\u003e The IBVL-1500 uses 1-1\/2 inch female NPT threads on both ports.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Groco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027994353883,"sku":"GRO-IBVL-1500","price":120.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/IBVL-1500__28371.1722386345.500.750.jpg?v=1785164377","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/groco-ibvl-1500-1-1-2-inch-npt-bronze-inline-locking-valve-with-locking-handle","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
