Product Overview
Oil-Only Absorbent Pillows – 18" x 18" are high-capacity, hydrophobic absorbents designed to capture oils, fuels, lubricants, and other hydrocarbon-based liquids while repelling water. Their large surface area and absorbent polypropylene fill make them well suited for persistent leaks, equipment drips, drum and tank areas, sumps, and marine spill response.
The white oil-only construction makes these pillows especially useful where petroleum-based liquids must be separated from rainwater, process water, or other surrounding moisture.
Key Features
- Oil-selective absorption: Absorbs oils, fuels, diesel, gasoline, lubricants, and other hydrocarbons while repelling water.
- High-capacity format: Thick pillow construction provides concentrated absorbency for larger leaks and pooled liquids.
- Hydrophobic polypropylene: Designed for petroleum spill response in both dry environments and areas where water is present.
- Flexible placement: Fits beneath machinery, pumps, valves, drums, tanks, and other common leak points.
- Marine capable: Suitable for capturing floating hydrocarbons in bilges, sumps, marinas, docks, and similar applications.
Typical Applications
- Leaking pumps, valves, hydraulic lines, and fittings
- Maintenance bays and industrial equipment rooms
- Drum, tank, and petroleum storage areas
- Oil collection in sumps and secondary containment areas
- Marinas, docks, bilges, and marine maintenance
- Oil and fuel spill response kits

Oil-Only vs. Universal vs. Hazmat
Choose oil-only absorbent pillows when hydrocarbons need to be captured while water is repelled. For oils, coolants, water, and other non-aggressive industrial liquids, use our Universal Absorbent Pillows. For acids, bases, caustics, and unknown chemical spills, use Hazmat Absorbent Pillows.
Questions & Answers
Q: What liquids do oil-only absorbent pillows absorb?
A: They are designed for oils, fuels, diesel, gasoline, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and other hydrocarbon-based liquids while repelling water.
Q: Can oil-only absorbent pillows be used on water?
A: Yes. Their hydrophobic polypropylene construction makes them suitable for capturing floating oil and hydrocarbons where water is present, including sumps, bilges, docks, and marine environments.
Q: What is the absorbency of a case?
A: A standard case contains 10 oil-only absorbent pillows with a total published absorbency of up to 9.9 gallons.
Q: When should I use a pillow instead of an absorbent pad or sock?
A: Pillows are useful for concentrated or persistent leaks where more absorbent capacity is needed in a compact area. Socks are better for surrounding and containing a spill, while pads are generally better for wiping surfaces and covering broader spill areas.
Q: Are oil-only absorbent pillows reusable?
A: These are disposable absorbents. Used pillows should be handled and disposed of according to the liquid absorbed and applicable facility, local, state, and federal requirements.
