Frienda 25-Pack 22in Drum-Top Oil Absorbent Pads for 55-Gallon Drums, Gray Bung-Cut, Tear-Resistant

Frienda 25-pack 22" drum-top oil absorbent pads are pre-cut, durable polypropylene mats designed to seal around 0.75" and 2" bungs to quickly capture oil and other hydrocarbon spills from 55-gallon drums.

These drum lid pads are made to sit inside a drum lid or around barrel openings so leaks and drips are contained at the source. Sold in a pack of 25, each 22-inch circular pad fits most 55-gallon drums with standard 0.75" and 2" bung sizes and offers strong oil affinity and tear resistance. They’re a simple, disposable tool to reduce mess and keep workshop floors and storage areas safer.

How do these pads stop drips from a 55-gallon drum?

The circular pads fit directly into a drum lid or under the bung to form a tight, absorbent barrier that captures leaks before they reach the floor. Their polypropylene composition targets oil and other non-water fluids, quickly drawing liquid into the pad and holding it in place.

• 22" diameter sized for standard 55-gallon drum lids
• Pre-cut center to accommodate 0.75" and 2" bungs
• Polypropylene layers engineered for fast oil uptake
• Single-use to eliminate cross-contamination risks

What liquids will these absorbent mats handle?

While optimized for petroleum-based fluids, these pads are effective with a variety of non-water liquids commonly found in industrial and automotive settings. They’re not designed to absorb large volumes of water efficiently, but will capture oils, coolants, solvents, and brake fluid.

• High affinity for oil, diesel, hydraulic fluid
• Works on solvents, coolants, and brake fluids
• Not ideal for bulk water cleanup or chemical neutralization
• Suitable for small to moderate continuous drips

How durable and safe are these absorbent pads?

Frienda pads are built to resist tearing and shredding during placement and removal, which helps minimize mess and makes disposal easier. Their construction allows you to place a pad over a bung or around a leak without immediate breakdown, improving handling safety during routine maintenance.

• Tear-resistant polypropylene construction for reliable handling
• Easy to position and remove without fragmenting
• Disposable—follow local waste regulations for oil-contaminated materials
• Pack of 25 gives redundancy for repeat use or multiple drums

How should I use and dispose of these drum-top pads?

Placement is straightforward: press the pad into the lid area or around the bung so the pad’s center aligns with the opening. After absorption, fold or roll the pad into a secure container or sealed bag and dispose of it according to local hazardous waste rules for oil-contaminated absorbents.

• Position pad around bung opening to catch drips
• Replace pads when saturated or routinely as part of maintenance
• Store unused pads in a dry area away from direct sunlight
• Dispose per local environmental and safety regulations

Who is this for: These Frienda drum-top absorbent pads are aimed at facilities and individuals who handle 55-gallon drums—auto shops, manufacturing floors, warehouses, maintenance crews, and hobbyists with bulk fluids. If you need a compact, single-use solution to control drips and small leaks at the drum source, this 25-piece set provides a practical, cost-effective way to keep storage areas cleaner and reduce slip hazards without special tools or installation.
