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.
Australian Made:
Manufactured in Australia for Australian conditions.
