This Brady SPC sorbent pad handles oil spills with a 32-gallon absorption capacity. The pad measures 19.5 inches by 15.5 inches, giving you enough coverage for medium-sized spills in shops, loading docks, and equipment areas. Oil-only sorbents like this one repel water while soaking up petroleum products, hydraulic fluid, and other hydrocarbon-based liquids.
The pad construction allows it to float on water while absorbing only oil-based fluids. This selective absorption prevents the pad from getting waterlogged during outdoor cleanup or in areas where water and oil mix. Brady SPC manufactures these sorbents at their Somerset, New Jersey facility. Having oil-only sorbents on hand helps facilities meet OSHA 1910.106 flammable liquid storage requirements and respond quickly to hydrocarbon spills.
Keep these pads in maintenance areas, vehicle service bays, and anywhere hydraulic equipment operates. They work well for cleanup around fuel dispensing areas, transformer pads, and generator enclosures. The single-pad format lets you tackle spills without breaking open a full kit when you only need one absorbent.
