600mmx M10 Float Arm (bent)

• 600mmx M10 Float Arm (bent)

Maximum reach and leverage: Longest standard arm in Cocky Valve’s range, enabling strong float action at greater distances.

High pressure capacity: Able to achieve shut-off pressures up to ~150 psi in many setups, making it suitable for demanding, high-pressure installations.

Industrial-grade material: SS316 stainless steel; very strong, highly resistant to rust and wear, ensuring long service life.

Better float engagement: Bent design allows the float to better enter water when the valve body is mounted high or above water level, improving performance.

Consistency and reliability: With Cocky Valve’s engineering and proven performance across many installations, this arm gives confidence that the float will function correctly under tough conditions.

1. How is the 600 mm bent arm best used?
It’s best suited for large tanks or Full Flow valve bodies (1½″ & 2″) where the valve is mounted above the waterline, allowing the float to engage more effectively with the water surface.

2. What shut-off pressures can this 600 mm bent arm deliver?
When fitted with a 10″ float and a 1½″ Full Flow valve, it can provide shut-off pressures of ≥ 1050 kPa (≈ 150 psi); with a 2″ Full Flow valve, around ≤ 965 kPa (≈ 140 psi).

3. What material is the arm made from, and why is that important?
Made from SS316 stainless steel rod (10 mm diameter). This gives high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and the ability to resist bending or failure under load.

4. Why use a bent 600 mm arm instead of a straight one?
The slight bend helps the float reach down into the water more effectively when the valve is above water level, improving buoyancy engagement and ensuring more consistent shut-off behavior in large or elevated tank installations.
