Jobe Topaz 1-1/4" Long Tail Float Valve – Largest-Inlet Trough Valve for Big Stock Tanks
The Jobe Topaz 1-1/4" Long Tail is a high-flow water trough float valve for large livestock troughs, stock tanks and water tanks. It has the largest inlet in the Topaz range and flows more water than the 3/4" Topaz at the same pressure.
The long tail comes with a backnut and seal washer for through-wall mounting. Like every Topaz, it uses a pilot-operated diaphragm that opens for high flow and closes gradually to help reduce water hammer. Set the water level by hand with no tools, and lock it off whenever you need to.
Built for big herds and high-demand watering points, from corrosion-resistant materials, with a built-in port for Jobe's FrostPro anti-freeze device (sold separately) for cold weather.
Features
Long Tail with Backnut & Seal Washer
2-3/8" thread length, supplied ready for through-wall mounting.
High-Flow Pilot-Operated Design
The float operates a small pilot valve, which operates the main diaphragm valve for fast refills.
Gradual Shut-Off
Closes slowly to help reduce water hammer in your lines.
Flexible Mounting
Installs top, side or bottom entry, horizontally or vertically — above or below the water line.
Tool-Free Adjustment & Lock Switch
Set the water level by hand, and lock the valve in the off position when you need to.

Frequently Asked Questions
Long tail or short tail — which do I need?
The 1-1/4" long tail has a 2-3/8" thread with a backnut and seal washer for mounting through a trough or tank wall. The 1-1/4" short tail has a 1" thread for a compact connection.
Will it work on a gravity-fed system?
The Topaz operates from 5 psi (0.3 bar) up to 100 psi (7 bar), covering many gravity-fed and pressurized systems.
How do I prevent back-siphoning?
Jobe recommends mounting the valve at least two inlet diameters above the trough's overflow. Some mounting positions may not comply with local regulations, so check yours.
Need a different size or tail?
See every option on the Jobe Topaz Float Valve page — 3/4", 1" and 1-1/4" inlets in long and short tail.
The biggest inlet in the Topaz range — the Jobe Topaz 1-1/4" Long Tail is built for troughs that mean business.
