About this item
Product details
Base gel was created to provide an innovative solution to a long-standing problem. We are proud to offer Base gel Super Absorbent Polymer which replaces sand or water as ballast weight for portable base supports for basketball goals, umbrella stands, volleyball nets, and more. We understand the importance of having a safe and secure support for outdoor sporting equipment and our product is the perfect solution. Base gel is easy to use and provides a secure and safe alternative to sand or water ballast. It is made of environmentally-friendly materials and is non-toxic. If you are looking for a reliable, lightweight and cost-effective solution, choose Base gel.
- MAXIMUM STABILITY: Stabilize basketball hoops, plastic sign bases, umbrella stands, volleyball nets, boxing equipment and more using the H2OLD Base Gel. This super absorbent polymer replaces sand or water used as a ballast weight. Combined with water, this powdered substance quickly turns into gel. The resulting firm and stable gel is freeze-thaw durable, making it perfect for use in any climate.
- SUPER ABSORBENT: Base Gel polymer effectively replaces sand or water as ballast weight for portable floor supports. Cross-linked polyacrylate polymer absorbs up to 400 times its weight in water to create a firm and stable gel that lasts.
- LEAK RESISTANT: Base Gel polymer offers resistance to leaks if small holes or cracks develop in the base. It provides a durable freeze and thaw for use in any climate. Base Gel stays a solid gel for 7 years or more. Environmentally friendly. Easily removes from sign bases. Simply add salt to the gel and it dissolves within minutes, returning to a liquid state.
- QUICK RESOLUTION: One 16 ounce bottle of base gel replaces up to 8 bags of sand and turns water into gel in 5 to 10 minutes. Our polymers swell to form a firm, stable gel with an effective shelf life of over 7 years. H2Old, LLC specializes in developing innovative polymer products that enhance and build upon the water absorption and retention benefits of superabsorbent polymers to meet specific application needs.
- HOW TO USE: Add approximately 2/3 of the dry Base Gel polymer into the portable base. Fill the base 1/2 full with water. Add remaining Base Gel polymer and fill base with water, leaving approximately 1/2” of air space. The Base Gel polymer will absorb the water in 5-10 minutes creating a firm gel.

Great Buy
Purchased this for my son’s new basketball hoop after hearing that this works better than water or sand. It simple and easy to use, turned into a gel form pretty quickly and appears to be strong enough to keep the base in place without any movement.
Verified Purchase
Product was in stock but was more expensive than Scheels and didn't want to make the trip to Scheels.
Verified Purchase
It was base gel for a basketball hoop.
