Product Overview
The Universal Absorbent Socks, Gray, 3" x 4', Pallet, 16 Cases (480 Socks) is a flexible, tubular absorbent designed to contain and absorb spills in hard-to-reach areas where flat pads and rolls can't conform. Each 3โณ diameter sock is filled with poly blend polypropylene filler inside a durable polypropylene mesh skin that conforms around machinery bases, equipment legs, pipe flanges, and irregular surfaces to create an effective barrier against liquid spread.
Universal gray color coding means these socks absorb oil, water, coolant, solvents, and virtually any non-aggressive liquid. Ideal for manufacturing floors, CNC machining centers, hydraulic press areas, loading docks, and general maintenance applications. Deploy around the base of leaking equipment, across doorways to prevent liquid migration, or along the perimeter of a spill to contain it while cleanup proceeds.

Why Industrial Absorbent Socks Are Essential
Industrial absorbent socks are flexible, tubular absorbents engineered to contain and absorb spills in areas where flat pads and rolls can't conform โ around machinery bases, equipment legs, pipe flanges, along trench drains, and across doorways. Their 3โณ diameter tube design creates an effective physical barrier to prevent liquid spread while simultaneously absorbing the contained fluid, making them the ideal solution for perimeter containment, drip lines, and active leak management.
Engineered for Your Application
This universal absorbent sock features poly blend polypropylene filler inside a durable polypropylene mesh skin. Gray color coding indicates universal/general-purpose absorption โ absorbs oil, water, coolant, solvents, and virtually any non-aggressive liquid.
Ideal for manufacturing floors, CNC machining centers, hydraulic press areas, loading docks, and general maintenance applications. The flexible tube design conforms around equipment bases and creates containment barriers to prevent liquid migration across floors and into drains.
Supports Regulatory Compliance
This absorbent sock supports compliance with the following regulations:
- EPA 40 CFR 112.7(c)(1) โ SPCC Plans require facilities storing oil to maintain adequate containment and cleanup materials on-site.
- OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22(a)(2) โ Walking-working surfaces must be kept clean, dry, and free of hazards including oil and fluid accumulation.
- EPA 40 CFR 122.26 โ NPDES Stormwater Management requires prevention of oil and pollutant discharge to storm drains and waterways.
- State Environmental Regulations โ Most states require facilities to prevent petroleum and chemical contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water.
