Boshart SSBV304-10 1" FPT 304 Stainless Steel Ball Valve, 1000 CWP
The Boshart SSBV304-10 is a 1" FPT full-port ball valve built from 304 CF8 stainless steel, rated 1000 CWP (cold working pressure) for shut-off service on rough-in plumbing lines. Boshart offers its stainless ball valve line in two material grades to match the application: 304 CF8 stainless steel for conventional installations and 316 CF8M stainless steel for more demanding, corrosive environments. This 1" FPT model is supplied with 304 CF8 stainless construction on both ends, giving plumbing contractors a durable shut-off valve for potable water, hydronic, and general piping runs where threaded connections are required. Note that Boshart's SSPEXBV-05, SSPEXBV-07, and SSPEXBV-10 PEX ball valve variants are only offered in 304 stainless steel, not 316 - this FPT model shares that same 304 CF8 body material. The valve ships packaged 10 pieces per case, making it a practical stock item for plumbing wholesalers and contractors who need multiple shut-off valves on hand for service trucks or job-site rough-in kits.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 1" FPT (female pipe thread) connections on both ends for direct threaded pipe installation.

Boshart SSBV304-10 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Boshart SSBV304-10 thread directly onto 1 inch male pipe, or do I need adapters?
Both ends are 1 inch FPT (female pipe thread), so it screws straight onto 1 inch male-threaded pipe or fittings, no adapters. If your run is copper or PEX, you'll need male adapters on each side to land on those threads.
2) Should I use 304 or 316 stainless for a ball valve on my water line?
The SSBV304-10 is 304 CF8 stainless, which Boshart positions for conventional plumbing installations. Boshart also builds the same stainless ball valve line in 316 CF8M for more demanding, corrosive environments. If the valve sees salt, chemicals, or an aggressive water chemistry, step up to the 316 CF8M version; for ordinary potable water, hydronic, and general threaded piping, 304 is the intended grade.
3) I need a rough-in shutoff but my lines are PEX, not threaded pipe. Is this the right valve?
No. The SSBV304-10 has FPT threaded ends only. For PEX you want a PEX-end valve such as Boshart's SSPEXBV-05, SSPEXBV-07, or SSPEXBV-10, which are 304 stainless PEX ball valves. Another option for rough-in shutoff on copper, PEX, or CPVC is the SharkBite SBBV54 push-to-connect ball valve, which needs no threading or soldering.
4) What is the difference between the Boshart SSBV304-10 and the SharkBite SBBV54 ball valve for a rough-in shutoff?
Both are ball valves used for rough-in shutoff service, but they differ in how they join the pipe and what the body is made of. The Boshart SSBV304-10 is a 1 inch threaded FPT valve with a 304 CF8 stainless steel body rated 1000 CWP, so it screws directly onto male-threaded pipe or fittings and suits runs where threaded joints are already specified. The SharkBite SBBV54 is a ball valve for rough-in shutoff applications from the SBBV54 series. If the piping is being made up with pipe threads and you want a stainless body, the Boshart is the match; if the job is being assembled without threading, look to the SharkBite.
5) What pressure is the Boshart 1 inch stainless ball valve rated for?
1000 CWP (cold working pressure). That covers shut-off duty on potable water, hydronic, and general plumbing supply runs well above typical domestic system pressures. It is a cold working pressure figure, so treat it as the rating for non-heated water service.
6) Is this a full port valve or a standard port?
Full port. The SSBV304-10 is a full-port 1 inch design, so the ball bore matches the 1 inch line and you don't lose flow across the valve. That matters on main isolation and pump suction lines where a reduced-port valve would add restriction.
7) Is the Boshart stainless valve stainless all the way through, or just the body?
Body and ball are both stainless. The valve uses 304 CF8 stainless construction on both ends with a stainless steel ball for the quarter-turn shut-off, so the wetted metal path is stainless rather than a brass ball in a stainless shell.
8) I need a shutoff valve for a corrosive environment - is the 304 stainless Boshart the right pick?
The SSBV304-10 uses a 304 CF8 stainless steel body, which Boshart positions for conventional plumbing installations. Boshart builds the same stainless ball valve line in 316 CF8M for more demanding, corrosive service, so for chemically aggressive or chloride-exposed lines the 316 CF8M grade is the one to specify rather than this 304 body. The SharkBite SBBV54 is also a rough-in shutoff ball valve but is a different construction approach altogether.
9) Can I use the SharkBite SBBV54 in place of the Boshart SSBV304-10 on a threaded pipe nipple?
Not as a direct swap based on connection style. The Boshart SSBV304-10 is built with 1 inch female pipe thread ends on both sides, so it threads onto a male nipple without adapters. The SharkBite SBBV54 is a ball valve for rough-in shutoff applications and would need its own connection method matched to the pipe. Confirm the end connection on the SBBV54 against your nipple before substituting; where the drawing calls for FPT, the Boshart is the straightforward fit.
10) How many valves come in a case of Boshart SSBV304-10?
Ten per case. That is the stocking unit, which is why it works as a truck-stock or rough-in kit item for wholesalers and plumbing contractors who set several isolation points per job.
11) How is this valve operated, and can it be used for throttling flow?
It's a quarter-turn ball valve, meant for on/off isolation rather than throttling. Ninety degrees from open to closed makes it fast to shut down a branch for service, but partial-open positions wear the seat and aren't the intended duty. Use a balancing or globe valve where you need flow regulation.
12) Do institutional buyers get country of origin on the Boshart SSBV304-10?
It's manufactured in China. That's the stated country of origin, which matters if you are procuring against a domestic-content or Buy American requirement on a public project.
13) For stocking shutoff valves on service trucks, how does the Boshart compare to the SharkBite option?
The Boshart SSBV304-10 ships 10 pieces per case, which suits wholesalers and contractors who keep multiple 1 inch threaded shutoffs on the truck or in a rough-in kit. It is a 304 stainless quarter-turn valve rated 1000 CWP with FPT ends on both sides. The SharkBite SBBV54 covers the same rough-in shutoff role and is worth carrying alongside it if your crews work on piping that is not threaded, so a single truck stock covers both joining methods.
