IBVF Flange Adaptor

THE CONCEPT 

Patented IBVF (bronze) and IBVF-S (#316 stainless steel) Flanged Adaptors were developed to address several common valve installation challenges.  Here’s what they do:     

• Eliminate dangerous thread miss-match when in-line valves (tapered NPT threads) are screwed onto thru-hulls (straight NPS threads). 
• Accept standard thru-hulls into the base and standard in-line valves on top. 
• By spreading the load across a greater area IBVF provides a safer installation when in-line valves are used as seacocks. 
• For OEMs, prevent valve damage during engine or generator installation - the valve can be installed later. 
• Simplifies future valve replacement.
