Polypropylene Balls

- Color: Semi-Clear White
- Max. Temperature:
Solid Balls: 180° F
Hollow Balls: 220° F - Tensile Strength: 2,900-5,070 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: 0.9 ft.-lbs./in. (Poor)
- Hardness: Rockwell R99 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: See table
Resistant to swelling when exposed to water, these balls are often used in laboratory applications.
Hollow balls float. Use them in tanks to slow evaporation and reduce heat loss.

Floats for Threaded Rods



Connect these floats to threaded float rods (not included). Use them to replace an existing float or combine with rods and float valve bodies (not included) to build a float valve. All are for use with water.
Polypropylene floats are lightweight and have good corrosion resistance.
Cylindrical and rectangular floats are self-tapping, except 4" dia. floats have a threaded hose connection.
