6 in Plastic Float Ball | 1/4-20 Internal Thread is a round plastic float ball for compatible float-valve and water-level control assemblies. This listing is written as a technical Corbett Equipment catalog listing for dry-cleaning shops, commercial utility service, equipment maintenance, water treatment, refrigeration/HVACR service, pneumatic systems, steam/gauge service, and industrial maintenance where the installed component matches the specifications below.

Use this listing only after comparing the installed part, physical dimensions, connection style, material, operating conditions, and machine or system documentation.

Technical Specifications

  • Component type: round replacement float ball / tank ball.

  • Float diameter: 6 in.

  • Overall diameter: 6 in.

  • Material of construction: plastic.

  • Material detail: polyethylene.

  • Shape: round float ball.

  • Connection: internal.

  • Connection type: threaded.

  • Connection location: internal.

  • Thread size: 1/4-20 internal thread.

  • Compatible product type: float rods and float valves where the installed connection and float size match.

  • Service role: provides buoyancy for compatible float-valve and water-level control assemblies.

  • Ordering check: verify float diameter, 1/4-20 rod/thread connection, connection depth, buoyancy needs, tank clearance, water chemistry, operating temperature, and float-valve compatibility.

Related Parts & Compatibility Notes

  • Related to 1/2 in and 3/4 in float-valve assemblies, but not a substitute for the valve body, seat, float arm, rod, or complete float-valve assembly.

  • Use only where the original part is a 6 in plastic float ball and the installed rod or arm uses a matching 1/4-20 threaded connection.

  • Do not substitute by diameter alone. Compare the old float ball, tank geometry, thread size, connection style, travel path, and shutoff level before installation.

Warnings & Restrictions

  • Warning listed for this item family: Cancer and Reproductive Harm. See www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

  • Restriction note: this item is restricted for conveying or dispensing water for potable use.

  • Verify water chemistry, tank clearance, thread engagement, float travel, and installed valve compatibility before use.

Machine Fitment & Industrial Use

Use for compatible dry-cleaning equipment, tank-level control, water-level control, and float-valve assemblies where the installed float is a 6 in plastic ball with a 1/4-20 internal threaded connection.

For dry-cleaning equipment, verify against the actual machine, valve panel, boiler or water-treatment system, gauge assembly, filtration system, utility line, pneumatic circuit, refrigeration service port, or service hose before ordering. If the product is being used outside dry cleaning, confirm compatibility with the application and operating conditions before installation.

Installation & Ordering Verification

  • Compare the product photo, installed component, size, connection style, and service location before ordering.

  • Confirm pressure, flow, temperature, material, chemical exposure, media compatibility, clearance, and mounting for the actual system.

  • Use qualified service personnel when installing pressure, steam, refrigeration, water, electrical, pneumatic, or equipment-control components.

  • Send photos of the installed part, machine tag, and service location if fitment is uncertain.

Ordering Verification & Support

For dry-cleaning machine parts, confirm the machine brand, model, serial or data plate, installed component markings, part number, voltage, pressure, thread or fitting size, and available manual references before ordering. When uncertain, send photos and machine information so Corbett Equipment can help verify FMB/Firbimatic, Union, Realstar, EcoGreen, and related model-lineage fitment before shipment.

Warranty & Condition

Condition is stated in each listing. New, used, remanufactured, rebuilt, and special-order parts may carry different coverage. Any warranty applies to the part supplied only and does not cover labor, diagnosis, installation, downtime, lost production, contamination, incorrect installation, incorrect voltage, incorrect pressure, incorrect fittings, or consequential damages.

Returns & Fitment Policy

Contact Corbett Equipment before returning any part. Returns require approval and must be unused, uninstalled, complete, and in resalable condition unless otherwise agreed in writing. Electrical parts, installed parts, special-order items, used or remanufactured parts, and incorrectly ordered parts may be limited or non-returnable. Fitment must be verified before purchase.

Shipping & Delivery

Most Corbett Equipment replacement parts ship after order review and fitment verification. Shipping method, handling time, packaging, insurance, freight requirements, and delivery cost vary by part size, weight, destination, inventory status, and carrier availability. Heavy, oversized, international, special-order, or supplier-sourced items may require a separate freight quote before shipment.
