About Our Floats

High quality Seymour-Sheridan floats are normally made from 300 series stainless steel. Other materials which can be inert gas arc welded may be specified, such as Monel, 20CB-3 or 17-7PH.

Seymour-Sheridan quality control includes:

• 100% inspection for leaks during manufacturing
• Periodic analysis of material
• Continual dimensional inspection
• Periodic testing for collapse pressure

Many liquid level floats shown in this catalog are in stock for immediate shipment in limited number. For a quote, please call, fax or use the form on our site to provide the size and quantity needed. Ask about quantities required to tool for special sizes, configurations or material. Finish on all parts is as-drawn and welded, except where noted. Electro-polishing and annealing are some of the finishing options.

Float Part No. 56000-3 This 9" diameter is the largest we currently make. We can supply larger sizes if the quantity warrants manufacture.
Float Part No. 57700-2 This is one of several floats with an internally mounted magnet suitable for tripping a reed switch.

Float Part No.51600-4 Two of these 2 1/4" floats screwed together increase buoyancy without increasing diameter. Each part has a collapse pressure of 900 psi and a specific gravity of 0.50. Liquid level floats with two internally threaded fittings may be assembled into multiple float configurations by using standard set screws to connect the floats.
