Aabaco Absorbent Socks 3"x48" — 10-Pack Spill Control for Oil, Water & Chemicals, Flexible Tubular Barrier

Aabaco Absorbent Socks are flexible, universal spill barriers that soak up oil, water and many chemicals while stopping leaks from spreading.

Quick containment matters in busy garages, warehouses, machine rooms and loading docks. These 3" x 48" tubular socks bend to fit around equipment legs, drains and doorways, absorbing fluids on contact and creating an immediate barrier to flow. Each sock holds up to approximately 1 gallon of liquid; the 10-pack gives you portable coverage wherever spills are likely to start.

How do these socks stop spills before they spread?

The tubular shape and pliable fill let the sock form a continuous seal along cracks, thresholds and around irregular equipment bases. By creating a physical perimeter, the product prevents fluids from reaching drains and walkways while the absorbent core traps the liquid inside the sock.

• Flexible tube design molds to uneven surfaces and corners.
• Fills absorb and hold up to about 1 gallon per sock.
• Use multiple socks end-to-end for longer barriers.
• Outer mesh keeps absorbed liquids contained for safer handling.

What kinds of liquids will Aabaco socks absorb?

These are universal absorbents designed to take in petroleum-based fluids, water-based solutions and many non-reactive industrial chemicals. That versatility makes them suitable for mixed-spill situations where the exact fluid may not be known at first glance.

• Motor oil, hydraulic fluid and gear oils.
• Coolant, water and water-based cleaning solutions.
• Solvents and other non-corrosive industrial liquids.
• Not intended for highly reactive or unknown hazardous materials without testing.

How do I use and dispose of each absorbent sock safely?

Lay socks across the flow path or wrap them around the base of a leak to contain and absorb the liquid. When saturated, pick up the sock and follow local regulations for disposal—sealed removal avoids secondary contamination and keeps areas clean without loose absorbent residue.

• Place as a perimeter at doorways or around machinery bases.
• Replace when full; do not attempt to wring out or reuse.
• Outer mesh allows clean pick-up and transport to disposal container.
• Follow facility protocols for disposal of contaminated absorbents.

Will these socks fit into tight or irregular spaces?

Yes—Aabaco socks are designed to be pliable so they conform to awkward shapes where rigid products fail. Their small diameter and long length make them ideal for threading into narrow gaps, lining thresholds and wrapping around uneven legs and piping.

• 3-inch diameter fits around pipes and under equipment edges.
• 48-inch length covers wider openings when used alone or joined.
• Soft, moldable fill presses into corners and along curbs.
• Useful for both temporary emergency response and ongoing drip control.

Who this is for: Aabaco Absorbent Socks are made for maintenance crews, auto shops, warehouse managers and facilities teams who need a fast, no-mess solution for everyday leaks and accidental spills. Keep a few at workstations, entrances and near high-risk equipment to reduce downtime, lower slip hazards and simplify cleanup when fluids escape containment.
