    Float Valve Bodies for Drinking Water

    Safe for use in drinking water systems, these float valve bodies meet NSF/ANSI 61 standards. Combine them with rods and floats to create custom float valves. They’re made of PVC, so they’re a lightweight alternative to metal valve bodies. With a nonrotating plunger, they maintain a tight seal even in turbulent water, such as in mixing tanks and tanks with boiling water.
