I kept searching in the net and found that I was wrong. In the following PDF http://www.pbmvalve.com/company/Valve_Solutions_German.pdf the word "Bohrung" is also used. In page 9 under the image in the middle it is explained.

Hi Fabian, you couldn't find that Direct Industry named "Kugelhahn - mit vollem Durchlass - " what is called "- full bore - ball valve" in english?
Bore can be translated with Bohrung, but in this case I don't think they produce the valves boring the hole
Liselotte K. de Hennig Sep 13, 2007:
I could only find an explanation for FULL BORE:
Designation for a valve, ran or other fitting whose opening is as large in cross section as the pipe, casing or tubing it is mounted on.

Note from asker:
Hi Liselotte, Can you also use 'bohrung' for 'bore'? Like 'Standardbohrung' for Standard Bore?
