Description
Overview
This triple foam 10mm pump pontoon is the one to choose for large submersible pumps. It is a foam-filled float rated for up to 550 kg in total, and it holds the pump just below the surface while rising and falling with the water level.
The design allows for 70% submergence at rated load with a 30% safety factor. Pontoons are quoted per order, so send us your pump model and we will price it.
Key features

- Pump draws from near the surface, clear of bottom silt
- Follows the water level without adjustment
- For lighter pumps see the triple foam 8mm pontoon
Where it works
Heavy pumps live on big water: mine process dams in Mpumalanga coal country, municipal raw water reservoirs in Gauteng, and large irrigation dams in the Western Cape fruit valleys. A pontoon of this rating keeps the pump steady where lighter floats would sit too low.
Add up the pump, cable and fittings, and keep the total under 550 kg. If your pump is lighter, the single foam pontoon may be enough. See the full submersible pumps range as well.

Yes, it is made for open water such as dams and reservoirs, and the pump draws from just below the surface. Tell us the pump model and the water conditions and we will quote the right size for your site.
