Bilge Oil Absorbent Pads are designed to quickly soak up oil and hydrocarbons from bilge water and other marine surfaces. These pads are highly effective for marine pollution control, helping to prevent oil spills from spreading. Made from hydrophobic materials, they repel water while absorbing oil, making them ideal for marine environments.

Size: Typically available in 18" x 18", 24" x 24", or custom sizes as per requirement.

Grade: Universal (for oils and hydrocarbons), Oil-Only (repels water), or Hazmat (for aggressive chemicals).

Viscosity Range: Effective on low to high viscosity oils (5 cSt to 500+ cSt).

Buoyancy: Floats even when saturated, preventing sinking in water.

Material: Polypropylene melt-blown or needle-punched fabric (hydrophobic for oil-only pads).

Absorption Capacity: 10-30 times own weight, depending on oil type.

Thickness: 5-10 mm for standard pads, thicker for heavy-duty use.

Color: White (oil-only), gray (universal), or yellow (hazmat) for easy identification.

Temperature Resistance: -40°F to +250°F (-40°C to +120°C).

Reusability: Some high-grade pads can be wrung out and reused.

Packaging: Sold in boxes or bags (50-200 pads per pack).

Certifications: Compliant with IMO, EPA, and SOLAS standards.

Bilge Oil Absorbent Pads for marine pollution control typically comply with maritime standards such as MARPOL Annex I and the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL). Always verify the product's certification with the manufacturer.
