  • TypeOther
  • Full-port 304 stainless steel ball allows unrestricted flow
  • Carbon steel body rated for 3,000 psi operating pressure
  • Handles air, oil, steam and water up to 150 psi steam
  • Vacuum service rated to 29.9 in Hg for sealed systems
  • Straight two-piece inline design simplifies installation

Valve Construction and Media Compatibility

The Zoro Select ball valve uses a two-piece carbon steel body with a 304 stainless steel ball. It is rated for air, oil, steam and water service up to 3000 psi operating pressure. Steam service is limited to 150 psi and vacuum service reaches 29.9 in Hg. Full port design allows unrestricted flow through the quarter-inch FNPT connections.

Installers Needing High-Pressure Shut-Off

This valve suits maintenance and OEM applications where carbon steel construction and 3000 psi rating are required. It is not for systems needing combustible gas certification or 3-A sanitary compliance. Buyers requiring those specific approvals should select a differently rated valve.

Quarter-Inch FNPT Connection Size

The nominal valve size is 1/4 inch with female NPT threads on both ends. This dimension determines whether the valve fits the existing piping assembly. Verify thread compatibility before ordering.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1/4" FNPT carbon steel ball valve inline without stripping the threads?

Apply PTFE tape or pipe thread sealant to the male threads, then hand-tighten the valve onto the 1/4" FNPT connections before using a wrench for a final quarter-turn; over-tightening the two-piece carbon steel body is the common error that distorts the full-port 304 stainless steel ball.

What maintenance or replacement will the Zoro Select 32H960 valve need over time?

Inspect the 304 stainless steel ball and seats annually for wear or corrosion from air, oil, steam or water; replace the valve if leakage appears at the two-piece body joint or if the 29.9 in Hg vacuum rating can no longer be held.

At what pressure limit does the valve show its constraint first during sustained use?

The 150 psi steam rating is the lowest maximum pressure listed, so continuous steam service will reach this limit before the 3,000 psi general operating pressure or the 29.9 in Hg vacuum rating become factors.
