Stainless Steel Float Ball Manufacturer & Supplier

Stainless Steel Float Ball Company supplies many common round sizes, including 1-1/2", 2", 3", 3-1/2", 4", 5", 6", 7", 8", 10", 12", and 14". Oblong floats are also available in multiple dimensions, including options such as 7 x 12", 7 x 16", 9 x 14", and smaller threaded styles for compact applications.

Most float balls are commonly made from 304 stainless steel, with 316 stainless steel also available for applications requiring added corrosion resistance. Other materials may be available when the system environment requires them. Material choice often depends on liquid chemistry, temperature, pressure, sanitation needs, and the required life of the float in service.

Yes. Float balls can be customized with threads, through tubes, hooks, fittings, or magnets to match your system design. Common thread options include NPT, UNC, and machine thread sizes, and custom thread specifications can be tapped. Through tubes can also be matched to stainless rods or cables used in measurement and control applications.

Yes. Pressure testing is available for floats that must meet higher-than-normal pressure requirements. The company has equipment to test floats according to customer specifications, helping confirm reliability before the product is placed into service. This is especially valuable for demanding liquid systems, vacuum tanks, high-pressure environments, and applications where float failure could disrupt operations.

The company offers matte, brushed, and fully polished finishes. Matte is the unfinished stainless steel look and may show the weld ring around the float diameter. Brushed finish smooths the weld seam without creating a full mirror effect. Fully polished float balls provide a mirror finish for decorative, visual, or specialty applications.

Stainless steel float balls are used in float valves, liquid level measurement systems, vacuum tanks, sump pumps, steam traps, flag poles, and art projects. They are common in food processing, chemical manufacturing, wastewater management, and industrial liquid control. The correct configuration depends on buoyancy needs, connection method, pressure, material compatibility, and the surrounding equipment.

Yes. Stainless Steel Float Ball Company offers flexible supply programs designed to reduce inventory costs, lower freight costs, and maintain consistent availability for ongoing production needs. Programs can be tailored around common sizes, direct shipping, repeat orders, and application-specific floats so customers can keep critical systems or manufacturing lines supplied reliably.

To request pricing, provide the float shape, size, material, finish, fitting or thread requirement, pressure requirement, quantity, and application details. Helpful information includes whether the float will be used in a valve, tank, level sensor, sump pump, steam trap, or decorative project. Clear specifications allow the team to recommend the right stock or custom option quickly.
