FLOAT BALL PLASTIC 4” OVAL COLD WATER PHILMAC 90489400
Philmac float valves help supply water on demand, used for tank fill or stock watering.
Philmac valves are tried and tested in the toughest of Australian conditions.
Features:
Positive Sealing Point:
A cap with a Viton O-ring is used to ensure a watertight seal – some manufacturers use an insert which can cause cracking of the float body or additional clamping is required.
Replaceable Cap:
The cap can be replaced if the thread is stripped and saves the cost of replacing the whole float.
Ovoid Shape:
Minimises any increase in overall length compared to the current float and minimise any protrusion from trough covers.
Blow Moulded:
This eliminates potential weld failure.
Polypropylene Construction:
The floats and cap are manufactured from polypropylene so they all have the same performance characteristics.
Australian Made:
Manufactured in Australia for Australian conditions
