The Bakkie Sakkie — Tip Top Lawnmowers' own 500L bulk water mister, hand-built in Mkondeni and powered by STIHL.
Bakkie Sakkie
Ten things worth knowing before you buy one. Keep scrolling.
Made from LLDPE
Tough, UV-stable tank material — won't rust, crack, or corrode from chemicals or years in the sun.
14–22 litres per minute
Enough flow for sustained knockdown on a flare-up, or steady coverage wetting down a firebreak.
40 bar maximum pressure
Enough reach and force to throw a mist well past the fireline without walking straight into the heat.
Metal frame
Bolts straight onto the back of your bakkie — built to take corrugated farm roads, not just tar.
30m hose
Reel-mounted, so it pays out and winds back without three people wrestling with it.
STIHL EHC 605 engine
The one part we don't build ourselves — STIHL engineering doing the heavy lifting.
High-pressure, low-volume pump
Gets more out of every litre in the tank — important when the nearest refill is a farm dam away.
Heavy-duty adjustable nozzle
Dial between a fine bulk-water mist and a harder jet, depending on what's in front of you.
500 litre tank
A serious bulk-water reserve on the back of a single bakkie — no trailer required.
Can also spray chemicals
Same unit doubles up for weed and pest control between fire seasons.
