ball Baffle SYSTEM

LOAD SAFETY SOLUTION FOR LIQUID SLOSH & SURGE

The Ball Baffle is a liquid load baffling solution for increasing load stability and reducing wear and tear in all types of liquid transport tanks. Ball Baffles clip together to form a hollow sphere that is inserted inside the tank to break up liquid waves and prevent them from creating a dangerous surge effect when a vehicle is braking or changing direction.

LOADSAFE AUSTRALIA - REAL WORLD TEST

Providing dramatic improvement in handling predictability and driver control.

Ball Baffles are easy to install and can be retro fitted to any existing tank with ease making it safer and less prone to roll over situations.

Independently tested and verified by Loadsafe Australia to increase the stability of tanker vehicles and reduce wear and tear on brakes and tires.

FAQs

How many balls baffle do I need in my tank?

The number of Baffle Balls required per litre varies based on the specific tank and its intended use.  You’ll need one ball for every 40 litres of liquid. Baffle Balls are specifically designed to minimize liquid movement in larger tanks, typically those over 500 litres.

How is a Ball Baffle system installed?

Insert the Baffle Balls into the tank before adding any liquid. Once inside, the Balls should interlock with each other forming a honeycomb effect. Make sure to fill the tank completely with the Balls, preventing any movement, which will help stabilise the water inside.

When to use ball baffles in tanks?

Baffle Balls are essential whenever liquid is being transported. They’re commonly used in water tanks where large volumes of liquid need to be transported. This could include potable household water, mines sites, on-farm, construction and civil.

are ball baffles useful on-farm?

With uneven roads, hilly terrain, and challenging driving conditions on farms across Australia, the need for Ball Baffles is an unknown necessity. The stability provided by these systems is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the tanks and the safety of the driver. 

Debunking Full-to-Empty Myth

While it’s generally accepted that baffling isn’t necessary when transporting a full tank of liquid from point A to point B and fully emptying it, how can you guarantee this for every trip? Partial loads can be lethal, and risking them without baffling poses a danger that can’t be minimized. Don’t risk partial load slosh and surge, especially in hilly or rough terrain.

fixed baffling vs. ball baffle

Ball Baffles provide superior liquid stability compared to fixed baffle systems. The Ball Baffle System effectively Baffles the entire tank and functions like a honeycomb structure. This design allows the Balls to quickly decrease liquid movement. In contrast, fixed baffle systems often leave compartments of 2000 to 4000 liters that remain vulnerable to the dangerous effects of liquid surge.
