New Pig SKM403 Sorbent Sock Oil White 12 PK

PIG SKM403 Oil-Absorbent Sorbent Socks

The PIG SKM403 is a pack of twelve white sorbent socks designed to absorb oil-based liquids and fuels. Each sock measures eight inches by eighteen inches and contains polypropylene filler wrapped in a polyester mesh and polypropylene skin. The package absorbs up to twenty-one gallons in total, with each sock holding one gallon. This product suits maintenance teams managing leaks or spills in industrial settings.

For spill response crews needing fast oil

These socks target oil and fuel on land or water while repelling water, making them useful for plant floors, docks or outdoor equipment areas. They are not suited for aggressive chemical spills such as acids, bases or solvents that require specialised hazmat absorbents. Facilities needing continuous perimeter barriers may prefer longer boom formats instead of individual eighteen-inch socks.

Behaviour during prolonged spill contact

The polypropylene filler retains its structure while saturated, allowing the sock to stay in place without disintegrating during extended use. The round profile and lack of an internal rope keep the sock flexible so it conforms to curved surfaces and machine bases over time. White colouring shows saturation levels clearly, helping crews judge when replacement is needed during a long cleanup.
