Absorbent Pad 400gsm – Oil & Fuel (480mmL x 430mmW)
SpilMax® Oil & Fuel Absorbent Pads (400gsm) – heavy‑duty hydrophobic pads for absorbing hydrocarbons, oils, fuels, and solvents while repelling water. Each 480mm x 430mm pad absorbs approx. 1 litre per saturation and can be wrung out and reused. Melt‑blown polypropylene with dimples and scrim for durability. Floats even when saturated – ideal for use in wet environments, marinas, waterways, and stormwater protection. Box of 100 pads (10 kg total). Tested to ASTM F726‑06. Perfect for workshops, industrial sites, and marine applications requiring high‑capacity, water‑repellent absorbency.

SHS-CH1320 – SpilMax® Oil & Fuel Absorbent Pads (400gsm)
High‑Capacity Hydrophobic Pads for Hydrocarbon Spills on Land & Water
Overview
SpilMax® Oil & Fuel Absorbent Pads are engineered from melt‑blown polypropylene with a dimpled, scrim‑reinforced surface for superior durability and absorbency. These 400gsm heavy‑duty pads are specifically designed to absorb hydrocarbons, plant oils, seed oils, and petroleum‑based solvents while repelling water. Even when fully saturated, they float, making them ideal for use in wet environments, on waterways, marinas, and near stormwater drains.
Each pad absorbs approximately 1 litre per saturation and can be wrung out and reused multiple times during a spill cleanup, offering excellent value and reduced waste. The pads are available in a box of 100, providing substantial capacity for workshops, industrial sites, and emergency spill response.
Key Features & Benefits
Hydrophobic & Oleophilic
Repels water while absorbing hydrocarbons – ideal for wet conditions and oil‑on‑water spills.
Floats Even When Saturated
Remains buoyant after full saturation, making it perfect for marine, marina, and stormwater applications.
High Absorbency
Each pad absorbs approximately 1 litre per saturation. Can be wrung out and reused multiple times.
Durable Construction
Melt‑blown polypropylene with dimples and scrim for tear resistance and extended service life.
400gsm Heavy‑Duty Weight
Thicker, more absorbent than standard pads – ideal for large spills and demanding industrial use.
Versatile Application
Use to capture small leaks, clean up spills, wipe down tools, create drip‑free set‑down areas, or line work benches.
Tested to ASTM F726‑06
Performance verified using the standard test method for sorbent performance.
