Hartford Technologies is a major supplier of products for poultry watering system applications using numerous variations of our soft-stainless ball products. The use of balls to control the flow in watering dispensing devices is common.  Most people will remember the water  bottle used in their child’s hamster cage where the weight of the steel ball provide a seal to prevent water flow.  When the ball was pressed the seal was opened and water was allowed to flow.  Once the contact was removed, the ball rolled back into position and prevented the water from flowing.  Because of the design a non-precision ball could be used as the retaining feature of the tube was designed to allow for minor variations in the ball diameter.  The same concept is used on poultry farms in feeding systems where there could be tens of thousands of birds to feed.
