$10.00Price
Dormont Series FBV-3C & FBVS-3C Full Port Brass Ball Valves
 
The Dormont Series FBV-3C and FBVS-3C are high-performance, 2-piece, full port brass ball valves designed for reliable service in commercial and industrial liquid and gas applications. These valves offer superior durability, precision engineering, and dependable shutoff performance across a wide range of pressures and temperatures.
 
Both models feature a bottom-loaded, blowout-proof stem, virgin PTFE seats, fluorocarbon elastomer O-rings, and adjustable stem packing glands for long-lasting leak-free performance. The chrome-plated brass ball and brass adapter ensure smooth operation, while the steel handle provides positive manual control.
 
Key Features
  • Full Port Design – Ensures maximum flow and minimal pressure drop.
  • Bottom-Loaded Blowout-Proof Stem – Enhances safety and prevents stem ejection under pressure.
  • Adjustable Stem Packing Gland – Allows for easy maintenance and long service life.
  • PTFE Seals and Seats – Provide chemical resistance and smooth valve operation.
  • Fluorocarbon Elastomer Stem O-Ring – Prevents stem leaks under varying conditions.
  • Chrome-Plated Brass Ball – Corrosion-resistant for long-term reliability.
  • Approvals & Standards:
    • CSA approved threaded valves (¼"–3")
    • UL/FM approved threaded valves (¼"–2")
    • UL Listed solder valves (½"–2")
    • Valves comply with MSS-SP-110 standard
 
Models
  • FBV-3C: Threaded connections, sizes ¼" – 4"
