TEC.AP50 - Absorbant Pads - 45cm x 45cm (50 Pack)

Standard duty pads for cleaning up drips, leaks and spills of oil, fuels, petrol, diesels and other hydrocarbons only.

Oil absorbing pads are ideal for cleaning up everyday hydrocarbon spills or wiping down oily equipment in both wet and dry conditions. These hydrocarbon absorbent pads are ideal for workshops, warehouses, loading docks, factories, transport depots, fuel and oil handling facilities, vehicle repair shops and maintenance workshops.

Oil and fuel absorbents are made from meltblown polypropylene and are colour-coded white for easy identification.  These absorbents are able to absorb up to 20 times their own weight in oil and have a fast-wicking action to clean up spills quickly. Oil and fuel absorbents are hydrophobic, which means they repel water. This makes them ideal for cleaning up hydrocarbon spills in wet environments, including ponds, sumps, drains, lakes, rivers, creeks or in the rain.

• Hydrocarbon pads feature excellent water-repellent characteristics (hydrophobic) so are suitable to use in the rain or float on water to absorb oil and fuel only.

• Rapidly absorbs oil and fuel spills for improved safety and productivity in the workplace.

• Oil and fuel sorbent pads can be squeezed and re-used.

• Simple, lightweight and easy to use without the need for specialised PPE.

• Absorbent capacity will vary depending on liquid viscosity, specific gravity and temperature.

• Maintenance polypropylene is compatible with, and absorbs most acids and bases.

• The suitability with a specific chemical should be confirmed by referencing the SDS, a compatibility chart or sample testing. We can provide samples as required.

• Absorbents retain the characteristics of the absorbed liquid. Appropriate PPE should be worn and disposal of used absorbents should be in accordance with local regulations.
