Description & Specifications
Control oil spills on land or water with the field-proven performance of PIG Booms.
- Field-proven performance works in all conditions to absorb oil spills on land or water
- Floats to confine and soak up spills on water; hugs ground for land-based spills
- Tough outer mesh is UV resistant for long-term outdoor use without degradation; lets fluids easily pass through to filler material
- Rope running along length of boom withstands up to 182kg loads, adding strength for deployment and retrieval
- Spunbond polypropylene skin is UV resistant up to 12 months; meets ANSI and MIL spec standards for static decay
- Booms float at surface for easy retrieval, even when saturated
- Absorbs and retains oils and oil-based liquids - including lubricants and fuels - without taking in a drop of water
- Strong, zinc-plated carbon steel attachment clips and rings allow you to link booms together for greater length
- Bright white colour makes booms easier to see in outdoor environments and clearly shows saturation level
- Can be incinerated after use to reduce waste or for fuels blending
- When sea-weather condition is wind speed >5 knots & a (perpendicular) water-current speed >2 knots, this can cause oil absorbent booms to submerge, allowing oil to pass over them
- Waves higher than freeboard (above water) portion of boom will push oil over absorbent booms; optimal sea-weather condition for usage is typically Beafort Scale #2 or less
