Cocky Ulti Flo Float valves are the latest evolution in our range, with a deflector incorporated into the casting of the valve body. They were designed for those farmers who have switched from lower pressure traditional gravity fed systems of the past to high pressure pipelines and pumps. They can be fitted above or below the required water level.
Cocky Ball Floats for stock troughs have fully clamped stainless steel M10 threaded inserts which eliminate any chance of thread stripping. The combination of a metal threaded insert and a strong metal clamp provides the ultimate support when the float is fitted to the end of the arm and has the greatest load. The threads in the Cocky Ball Floats won’t strip, so unlike other manufacturers, do not require a replace

WHY CHOOSE COCKY VALVE?
Superior materials = superior strength
All components of Cocky water trough float valves are made from stainless steel 316. This premium grade stainless steel is far superior in strength to plastic or brass, and has increased corrosion resistance. Using unbreakable stainless steel means we can guarantee a Cocky Valve will not break, even under the most extreme conditions, providing you with the confidence that water will always be there when your stock needs it.
Superior shut off performance
Our Ulti Flo range of float valves can handle either very low (≤ 5 psi – 30kPa) or very high pressure (≥ 150psi – 1050 kPa) installs. They will shut off at over 900kPa (130 psi), with just a 200mm float on a 300mm long lever arm. Shut off pressures ≥ 1350 kPa (200 psi) with increased in-flows can also be achieved if the float size is increased and/or a longer lever arm is used. So whether you need a very low pressure float valve, or a very high pressure float valve, Cocky has you covered.
Superior Flow Rates:
Our Ulti Flo range of float valves will deliver 4 litres per second at just 200kPa and can deliver over 12 litres per second at the higher range of 900kPa. The Cocky valve will deliver all the in-flow rate available at the trough or tank day after day, consistently and reliably.
Lifetime Guarantee
You won’t find a stronger or more reliable stock trough float valve – we guarantee it. Cocky Valve offers a lifetime guarantee against breakage when installed as recommended, so if it breaks – we’ll replace it for free, or give you your money back.

FAQS
1. What makes the Ulti-Flo Float Valve different from standard options?
The valve body features an integrated deflector, allowing for installation both above and below the water level. This flexibility makes it more versatile than standard float valves.
2. How does its construction ensure long-term reliability?
It is made entirely from 316-grade stainless steel, making it unbreakable and highly resistant to corrosion. This ensures superior durability compared to plastic or brass alternatives.
3. What pressure ranges and flow performance does it support?
The Ulti-Flo Float Valve can handle very low pressures (≤ 5 psi / 30 kPa) up to very high pressures (≥ 150 psi / 1050 kPa). Shut-off typically occurs above 900 kPa (130 psi), with flow rates up to 4 L/s at 200 kPa and over 12 L/s at higher pressures when paired with the appropriate float and lever arm.
4. How versatile is it across different installations?
The valve is designed for universal use, screwing directly into standard BSP inlets without the need for bushings. When combined with the correct arm and float, it adapts easily to a wide range of tanks and trough setups.
