Description
Overview
Baffle balls are loose hollow polyethylene balls that you put inside a transport tank to slow the movement of the liquid when you brake, accelerate or corner. They are sold per ball or as a ready-counted pack matched to the size of your tank, and Kamano delivers them across South Africa.
In a part-filled tank, water or diesel can surge from end to end and shove the vehicle around. The balls fill the free surface of the liquid, break up the surge, reduce turbulence and prevent splashing, so the flow stays steadier. They are moulded from high grade LLDPE plastic, the same material family as the tanks themselves.
Key features
- Reduces sloshing and liquid surge in transit
- Limits the free liquid surface and so improves stability
- Counted packs for 1000, 2500, 5000, 6000 and 8000 L tanks
- Per-ball option for top-ups or custom quantities
- Moulded from high grade LLDPE plastic
- Pairs with our horizontal transport tanks

Where it works
Water carters in Limpopo and Gauteng fit them in 5000 L tanks on truck decks. Farmers moving diesel or water to lands in the Free State and the North West use them in bakkie tanks. Mines and contractors in Mpumalanga and the Northern Cape use them for dust-suppression bowsers. Always secure the tank to the vehicle as well.

Questions about this product
How many baffle balls do I need for my tank?
Use the pack counts: 26 balls for 1000 L, 54 for 2500 L, 108 for 5000 L, 110 for 6000 L and 225 for 8000 L. For other sizes or a partly baffled tank, send us the tank size and we will advise a quantity.
Do baffle balls stop a tank from moving on the bakkie?
No. They slow the liquid inside the tank, which limits surge. The tank itself must still be strapped or bolted to the vehicle. Water is heavy and can shift the load, so secure the tank properly every trip.
Do you deliver baffle balls to Upington?
Yes, in 1 to 3 days by Kamano trucks from Polokwane. The fee follows total order weight: up to 30 kg is R550 and 30 to 60 kg is R950. A full 8000 L pack is about 45 kg. Orders of R20,000 or more, VAT incl., ship free.
