Boia De

A "boia de" is a Portuguese phrase that translates directly to "of float" or "float of". It commonly refers to a float, specifically the type used in various applications involving liquids, often water. This can encompass several different types of objects that float on water, depending on the context.

The term is most often used in the following contexts:

• Fishing: It can refer to a fishing float, also known as a bobber, which is attached to a fishing line to indicate when a fish has taken the bait.

• Pools and Water Parks: It refers to floating devices designed for recreation, such as inflatable rings, mattresses, or other toys intended to float on the surface of a swimming pool or lake.

• Engineering and Plumbing: It can refer to a float used in mechanisms that control water levels, such as in toilet tanks or water reservoirs. In this context, the "boia de" triggers a valve to regulate the flow of water based on its position. The float itself is often a hollow, sealed object made of plastic or metal.
