Designed for large-scale industrial and marine spill response, these booms serve as a critical first line of defense for containing and recovering oil in demanding environments where water is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"579\" data-end=\"1115\"\u003eEach boom is \u003cstrong data-start=\"602\" data-end=\"666\"\u003e8 inches in diameter and 10 feet in lenght\u003c\/strong\u003e, constructed with a highly absorbent polypropylene filler encased in a durable, tough outer mesh net. This construction provides excellent strength, flexibility, and resistance to tearing, allowing the boom to maintain its shape and performance even when fully saturated.\u003cstrong\u003e Engineered for high absorption capacity, an 8\" x 10' boom can absorb approximately 10 to 14 gallons or more of hydrocarbons, while remaining buoyant on the water’s surface.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003eThe hydrophobic design ensures that the boom repels water and selectively absorbs oil, making it highly effective during rain events, tidal conditions, or active marine operations. Each boom is equipped with corrosion-resistant steel connectors and internal rope reinforcement, allowing multiple units to be securely linked together to form continuous containment barriers around spills, vessels, docks, machinery, or sensitive shoreline areas. The bright white color provides high visibility and allows users to easily monitor saturation levels for timely replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1692\" data-end=\"2267\"\u003eThese oil-only booms are widely used in marinas, ports, refineries, oil and gas facilities, stormwater management systems, and industrial maintenance operations to control and recover oil spills while preventing environmental contamination. Designed for outdoor and long-term deployment, many are UV-resistant for extended exposure and can be incinerated after use to reduce waste. Each boom is constructed from polypropylene filler with nylon rope and steel hardware, delivering reliable performance for critical spill-response and environmental-compliance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acadiana Textiles \u0026 Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607936319645,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/2512\/0413\/files\/8inOilOnlyBoom.png?v=1770834993","url":"https:\/\/acadianatextilesandsupply.com\/products\/5-inch-universal-absorbent-boom-copy-1","provider":"Acadiana Textiles \u0026 Supply ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
