Boshart FPIB Series Push-Fit Ball Valve
The Boshart FPIB Series is a lineup of push-fit ball valves built for rough-in and repair work where a fast, tool-free shutoff connection is needed on copper, CPVC, or PEX pipe runs. The series is offered across two models — FPIB5150 and FPIB5350 — giving plumbers and contractors a choice of trade sizes, including a 1" option, to match main supply lines and smaller branch runs. Every valve in the series is a full-port ball valve with push-fit connections on both ends, allowing installation directly in-line without soldering, threading, or crimping. That tool-free design saves time on both new construction and retrofit jobs, and the compact, code-friendly profile makes these valves well suited to installation behind the wall or under the floor.
Key Features
- Model Options: Available as FPIB5150 or FPIB5350, giving a choice of trade sizes — including a 1" connection size — to suit main and branch supply line shutoff applications.
- Push-Fit Connections: Tool-free push-to-connect ends on both sides of the valve body allow a fast, reliable joint on compatible copper, CPVC, or PEX pipe without soldering, threading, or crimping tools.
- Full-Port Ball Valve Design: Quarter-turn ball valve operation gives a clear, tactile open/closed position for quick isolation of a supply line during service or repair work.
- In-Line Shutoff: Designed to be installed directly in a pipe run, giving plumbers a dedicated isolation point for a fixture, appliance, or branch line without cutting into finished areas repeatedly.
- Rough-In Application: Suited for behind-the-wall and under-floor installation on residential and light commercial supply lines.
- Consistent Series Design: Both models share the same push-fit, full-port ball valve construction, so the installation method and operation are the same across the size range.
