Application: Oil & fuel only boom used to contain, divert and absorb spills. Highly flexible - can be stuffed into drains, moulded around machinery, pushed under pallets or used to block and divert a spill from entering waterways & drains. 

Absorbent capacity: 5 litres per boom. 

• Great for mine site & maintenance workshops, factory & warehouse floors, fuel handling facilities, oil storage depots, vehicle repair shops and transport facilities.
