Jobe Megaflow 1" Short Tail Trough Valve – High-Flow Underwater Float Valve
Ships directly from the manufacturer.
The Jobe Megaflow 1" Short Tail is a high-flow water trough float valve for livestock troughs and water storage tanks. It mounts underwater only — which Jobe says helps avoid freezing and makes the valve less prone to stock damage — and its short tail gives a compact, low-profile connection.
A float on a nylon cord opens a small pilot valve, which activates the main diaphragm valve for high flow and a positive on/off action. An inlet filter is built in, and the valve locks off with a cord lock.

Frequently Asked Questions
Short tail or long tail?
The 1" short tail has a 7/8" thread for a compact connection. If you're mounting through a trough or tank wall, the 1" long tail has a 2-1/8" thread and comes with a backnut and seal washer.
Why mount it underwater?
Jobe notes underwater installation helps avoid freezing and makes the valve less prone to stock damage. Check that underwater mounting is allowed by your local regulations.
