Re: 32mm 1 1/4" Bronze Ball Valves - USA

Consider using a valve that includes a grease zerk fitting for lubrication: GROCO Bronze Valve
IBV-1250 BSPP: https://www.groco.net/products/valves-seacocks/inline-valves/ibv-series-bspp-thread/ibv-1250-bspp

This bronze valve has 1-1/4" female BSPP threads which will require pipe thread sealant. More:

Mark,

I just replaced the ball valve in my forward head.  Believe it or not, but I got mine on Walmart.com.  Do a google search for "IBV-1250BSPP" which is Groco's part number for this valve and you will find several sources for it.  Defender will also special order it for you from Groco but it takes awhile.  They will do that for most of the manufacturer's they carry.
