Float Ball for Open-Tank Water Systems
This 10-inch copper float ball is designed for use in open tanks and non-pressurised water applications. It suits maintenance teams and plumbers who need a reliable buoyancy component for level control in cisterns or storage vessels. The lead-free solder joints meet potable-water requirements for safe installation.
Behaviour Under Continuous Immersion
The high-grade copper construction resists corrosion during long-term submersion in ambient-temperature water. Overlapping joints bonded with lead-free solder maintain structural integrity without degrading. The unit is not rated for pressurised lines or high-temperature service, so performance in those conditions is not supported.
Straightforward Fitting With Clear Limits
Installation consists of connecting the float to the existing valve or lever mechanism inside the tank; no specialised tooling is required. The spherical shape allows free movement in standard openings. The main error is attempting to use the ball in pressurised or hot-water systems, which the construction does not support.

Questions about this item
Will the copper float ball corrode or fail if it runs continuously in a water tank all day?
The high-grade copper construction with lead-free soldered joints is designed for constant water immersion in open tanks and resists corrosion under normal use.
What tank opening or fittings do I already need for this 10 In float ball to install and operate correctly?
You need an open tank with a compatible lever arm or valve mechanism that accepts a 10 In round copper float ball for buoyancy control.
Can this float ball replace the original part in an older Watts tank valve assembly without modification?
It fits legacy Watts valve assemblies that specify a 10 In round copper float ball, provided the existing lever arm and linkage dimensions match.
