Floating Ball Sight Gauge Level Indicators

Round float balls are available in sizes from 1-1/2" to 14" diameter. Oblong floats range from 2x6" up to 7x16" and 9x14", with various NPT and UNC thread configurations. Custom sizes beyond standard inventory can also be manufactured to meet your exact dimensional and fitting requirements.

Yes. Float balls are fully customizable with a wide range of thread specifications including 1/4-20, 3/8-16, 1/4 NPT, 3/8 NPT, 1/2 NPT, 5/8-11 UNC, and 3/4 NPT. Custom through tube options are also available. Any thread specification can be tapped to match your existing system requirements precisely.

Yes. Custom magnets can be sourced and assembled inside the float balls to enable precise level detection in liquid-based systems that require magnetic components. This is ideal for automated level control systems, switch actuation, and complex industrial measurement applications where a direct mechanical connection is not practical.

These float balls serve a wide range of industries including food processing (monitoring oils, syrups, and liquids in tanks), chemical manufacturing (monitoring corrosive liquids safely), wastewater management (level monitoring in treatment tanks), industrial process control (steam traps, sump pumps, vacuum tanks), and float valve systems across heavy industrial settings worldwide.

Pressure testing services are available to meet custom specifications. Equipment is on hand to test each float ball to the pressure requirements specified by the customer. This ensures reliability in high-pressure environments such as steam traps, vacuum tanks, and industrial process control systems where float failure is not an option.

Three finish options are available: Matte (unfinished with visible weld ring), Brushed (smooth polished weld seam), and Fully Polished (mirror finish). The choice of finish can affect corrosion resistance, cleanliness compliance for food-grade applications, and aesthetic requirements for decorative or custom design projects such as flagpole balls.
