Context: "The original dies were designed and built by R.B. of C.P. company – the final prototype had a **ballcock float cut** in half as the cover and an Innes Tartan softdrink bottle as its flask."
I know what it is but I am not really sure how to describe that. Remembering that the ballcock float cut in question is part of a Milk Meter, if that matters.

"- o protótipo final possuía uma boia cortada ao meio, utilizada como tampa e uma garrafa do refrigerante Innes Tartan, como frasco".
Seria ainda possível excluir o termo "refrigerante", se assim interessar deixando a tradução como segue:
"- o protótipo final possuía uma boia cortada ao meio, utilizada como tampa e uma garrafa de Innes Tartan, como frasco".
"O protótipo definitivo tinha uma boia – daquelas de válvulas de boia – cortada ao meio, como tampa, e uma garrafa de refrigerante Tartan, como frasco."
