PIG Oil Boom oil-only absorbent boom 4-Pack — 5" x 10", floats and absorbs up to 6 gal, UV-resistant

PIG Oil Boom is a 5" x 10' oil-only absorbent boom sold in a 4-pack that confines and soaks up oil and fuel on water or land, absorbing up to 6 gallons per boom.

Designed for marine spill response, dockside protection, and land-based containment, these oil-only booms float and selectively absorb hydrocarbons while rejecting water. Built with a durable outer mesh and a spunbond polypropylene skin, they resist UV degradation and remain usable outdoors. Zinc-plated carbon steel clips and rings let you link multiple booms for longer runs, and their bright white color helps you monitor saturation at a glance.

How does this boom control oil on water?

The PIG Oil Boom forms a floating barrier that confines oil, then absorbs it into the internal filler so the slick can’t spread. It stays at the surface when saturated, making retrieval straightforward and minimizing secondary contamination.

• Floats on water to contain and absorb surface oil
• Links together using metal clips and rings for extended coverage
• Bright white color shows saturation level for fast inspection
• Rated to absorb up to 6 gallons per 5" x 10' boom

Can I use these booms on land, and how do they perform?

Yes — the design hugs contours and ground surfaces to confine and pick up oil or fuel spills on soil, asphalt, and other hard surfaces. The outer mesh allows liquids to pass to the absorbent filler while keeping the construction tough enough for repeated use.

• Conforms to uneven ground to stop run-off and absorb pooled hydrocarbons
• Durable mesh resists tears and abrasion during deployment
• Rope running lengthwise supports handling and retrieval up to 400-lb. loads
• Spunbond polypropylene skin meets ANSI and MIL-SPEC static decay standards

What features help with long-term outdoor use and handling?

Materials were selected to withstand sunlight and routine exposure without rapid breakdown. Attachment hardware and integrated rope make deployment, linking, and retrieval reliable on docks, marinas, and shorelines.

• UV-resistant spunbond polypropylene skin lasts up to 12 months outdoors
• Tough outer mesh resists UV and lets fluids reach the filler material
• Zinc-plated carbon steel clips and rings for corrosion-resistant connections
• Running rope supports heavy handling and quick recovery

How should I dispose of or reuse these booms after use?

After they’ve absorbed oil or fuel, PIG Oil Booms can be disposed of according to local regulations; they are also incinerable for waste volume reduction or fuels blending where permitted. Do not attempt to clean and reuse booms contaminated with hazardous substances unless expressly authorized by your regulatory and safety guidelines.

• Incinerable after use to reduce waste or for fuels blending where allowed
• Follow local, state, and federal disposal rules for contaminated absorbents
• Handle saturated booms with appropriate PPE and containment measures
• Inspect linked booms for damage before redeployment

Who is this for: Operators at marinas, ports, industrial waterfronts, environmental response teams, maintenance crews, and facility managers who need a reliable oil-only containment and cleanup tool. It suits anyone who requires a UV-resistant, easily linked boom that floats when saturated, provides visible saturation feedback, and is engineered for rugged outdoor use. Choose PIG Oil Boom when you need selective oil absorption with strong handling hardware and options for regulated end-of-life disposal.
