Product Overview
Oil-Only Absorbent Socks are engineered to contain and absorb petroleum-based spills such as oil, diesel, gasoline, and lubricants while actively repelling water. The 3-inch diameter, 48-inch long socks create a fast, flexible barrier that prevents oil from spreading across floors, drains, or waterways. Trusted in marine, industrial, and maintenance environments, these socks are a key component in spill response and compliance programs.
