FLOAT CHAIN KIT 300MM WITH M10 NIPPLE COCKY VALVE 0229 at a glance

Float Chain With M10 Nipple

This chain kit contains a 300mm stainless steel jack chain, an M5 standard Dee Shackle and an M10 stainless steel nipple.

Cocky Chain Kits are the ideal way to fix Cocky ball floats to the arms, while allowing easy adjustment of float height.

They provide one of the strongest float fixings on the market, and are much stronger than a thin fibre string.

It is as simple as:

Screwing the nipple on the end of the jack chain into the float.

Fitting the Dee shackle to the end of the arm.

Passing the jack chain through the shackle until the float is at the required height.

Fixing the end link of the jack chain back onto a link of the chain going back up to the float.

The chain is effectively looped through the shackle and fixed back onto itself.

Install the float chain kit into your poly tank or trough inlet, ensuring the M10 nipple threads securely into the cocky valve body. Adjust the float chain length so the ball sits just below the water surface when the trough is full — this gives the valve room to shut off cleanly. Connect your water supply line to the inlet and run the system for 5 minutes to check for leaks and confirm the valve closes when the float rises. Test the water level stays consistent over a few hours before leaving it unattended. Tips: Check your supply pressure matches the ball float's rating — most rural systems run 100-350kPa, so confirm yours is in that range before installation. If you're running from a dam pump, fit a pressure gauge on the supply line to avoid over-pressuring the valve. Keep the float ball clean and moving freely; debris from dam water can stick it fast and cause overflow.
