Material and Construction Details

The rod is constructed from brass for corrosion resistance in wet environments. A California Proposition 65 warning applies because the product contains a chemical known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 12 in brass float rod with 5/16-18 threads and what step is often missed?

Thread the 5/16-18 rod into the float valve and secure the float ball; the step often missed is tightening the locknut against the valve body to prevent the rod from rotating loose.

What maintenance or replacement will the brass float rod need over time?

Inspect the 5/16 in diameter brass rod for corrosion or bending; replace the rod or float ball if the rod threads strip or the ball loses buoyancy.

What limit appears first on the 12 in brass float rod during sustained use?

The 5/16 in brass diameter can bend under repeated lever force from the float ball, causing misalignment before the threads wear out.
