Spilltech WP-S Absorbent Pad 15 x 18 in 35 gal

Spilltech WP-S Absorbent Pad 15 x 18 in

The Spilltech WP-S is a light-duty absorbent pad designed for garage and shop environments. It measures 15 in wide by 18 in long and comes in a white colour for high visibility on most surfaces. The pad uses polypropylene fibres encased in a nonwoven cloth with scrim reinforcement to handle leaks, spills, overspray and drips. Each package absorbs up to 35 gal of liquid.

Replaces loose granular absorbents and basic rags

Switching to these pads is worth it when you need faster containment without the dust or disposal bulk of loose media. The scrim-reinforced construction resists tearing during retrieval, so saturated pads stay intact. They suit routine maintenance drips and occasional overspray rather than continuous high-volume flows. Buyers needing higher capacity per pad or chemical-specific sorbents should look elsewhere.

Limited by light-duty polypropylene construction

The polypropylene fibres target oil-based and water-based fluids but are not rated for aggressive acids or caustics. Absorption capacity tops out at 35 gal per package, so large spills demand multiple packs on hand. The 15 x 18 in footprint covers a defined area only; it cannot conform to tight corners or wrap around equipment like flexible socks or booms. Outdoor use in wind may require weighting.
