Forespar Ball MF850 Valve

FORESPAR Ball MF850 Valve

Upgrade your vessel´s plumbing with the superior performance and unmatched reliability of the FORESPAR Ball MF850 Valve. Engineered for the demanding marine environment, this valve represents a modern solution to the age-old problems of corrosion and electrolysis that plague traditional bronze and brass fittings. Ideal for any boat owner seeking long-term peace of mind, the MF850 series provides flawless control over your boat’s critical water systems.

Precision molded in high strength glass-reinforced Marelon.

Their strength light weight and complete freedom from corrosion and electrolysis make them the ideal valve for controlling inlet and outlet water requirements above and below the waterline.

The FORESPAR MF850 is not just a replacement part; it is a significant upgrade to your boat´s safety and operational integrity. Unlike metal valves that can seize due to corrosion or become a source of galvanic activity, Marelon valves are chemically inert in seawater. This means no more bonding wires, no more worrying about dissimilar metals, and no more surprise seizures when you need to operate the valve in an emergency. The ball and handle move smoothly year after year, offering dependable service with minimal maintenance.

Key Benefits:

* Ultimate Corrosion Resistance: Completely eliminates the risk of corrosion, electrolysis, and galvanic action, ensuring a much longer service life than traditional metal valves.
* Exceptional Strength and Durability: Constructed from advanced Marelon polymer, these valves offer the structural integrity of bronze without its associated weight and corrosion issues, providing robust performance even in critical below-the-waterline applications.
* Lightweight Construction: Significantly lighter than their metal counterparts, reducing overall vessel weight and making installation and handling far easier.
* Enhanced Safety and Reliability: Fully compliant with the strictest marine industry standards, including UL and ABYC approvals. The non-seizing nature ensures the valve will operate when you need it most.
* Low Maintenance Operation: The smooth, inert surfaces of Marelon prevent build-up and seizure, requiring no lubrication and offering consistent, trouble-free operation.

Main Features:

* Designed for full, unrestricted flow, ensuring maximum efficiency for engine cooling, sanitation systems, and bilge pumps.
