Vibrations are a very common problem on unmanned aerial vehicles and multirotors. These gimbal vibration damper balls are designed to reduce the vibrations passed from the multirotor to the gimbal. They are part of the gimbal mounting system and provide a cushion that isolates the gimbal hardware from the aircraft.
The gimbal needs four sets of three cushions, and the pack gives a total of four gimbal rubbers. The listing says the extra quality shows in the extra softness of the top of the balls, where the vibrations are absorbed, and in the extra rigidity of the premium silicone.
The damper helps reduce unwanted vibrations so gimbal operation is more stable.
High-quality silicone: soft top for absorbing vibrations and a rigid body.
Effective vibration isolation: reduces vibration reaching the gimbal.
Wide gimbal compatibility: 2-axis and 3-axis brushless gimbals.
Very lightweight: adds almost nothing to the payload.
Four-piece pack: enough for one gimbal mount.
Damper balls sit between the aircraft and the gimbal plate and act like small springs. High-frequency vibration from the motors and propellers is absorbed by the soft rubber, so it does not reach the camera and cause jello or blur in the video.
The stiffness of the balls has to suit the weight of the gimbal and camera. Too stiff, and the vibration passes through. Too soft, and the gimbal can bounce or swing in flight, which is why the listing gives a load capacity range.
Install the balls evenly on the mounting plate and keep the wiring loose so a cable does not bridge the damper and carry vibration across.

The specification table lists a silicone material, a length of 21mm, a width of 17mm, an inner diameter of 7mm and a load capacity of 120 to 180g. The colour is random.
Check that your gimbal's mounting holes take a damper with a 7mm inner diameter, and that the combined weight of the gimbal and camera falls within the load range.
