Brady OIL806 Sorbent Sock Overview

The Brady OIL806 Sorbent Sock is a white polypropylene barrier designed to contain and absorb oil-based fluids. Each sock measures three inches by eight feet and absorbs up to two gallons of liquid. A pack of six delivers a total capacity of twelve gallons for industrial spill response.

Suitable Applications and Limitations

These socks suit maintenance teams managing petroleum, paint or non-water-soluble chemical leaks around machinery. The oil-selective filler repels water, so they are ineffective for coolant, aqueous acids or universal spill kits. Facilities needing water-based absorption should choose a different product type.

Deployment and Common Issues

Lay the flexible sock around the leak source; the round profile conforms to uneven floors without tools. Saturation is the main failure mode — once the polypropylene filler holds its two-gallon limit, the sock must be replaced promptly to avoid secondary tracking.

Questions about this item

Do I need a spill container or tray to hold the 3 in x 8 ft socks while they absorb up to 2 gal each?

The socks are flexible and can be placed directly around equipment, under leak points or along curbs without a separate container; each sock absorbs up to 2 gal of oil-based fluid.

Will these polypropylene socks degrade if they touch older metal drums or painted surfaces that still have residue?

The polypropylene filler and skin resist petroleum-based fluids and non-water-soluble chemicals, so incidental contact with coated metal or painted surfaces will not damage the sock.

How can I confirm the six-pack is absorbing the full 12 gal capacity during a spill response?

The white polypropylene skin turns translucent and the sock becomes noticeably heavier when saturated; a fully soaked sock holds roughly 2 gal, so six socks reach the 12 gal package rating.
