Description
Overview:
The Osmo Water Absorbent Thirsty Sock is a polymer-filled barrier designed to control and contain water-based leaks and spillages. Each sock measures 1.0 m x 12 cm (approx. 1200 mm x 120 mm) and is engineered to turn liquid into a stable gel, helping prevent drips from spreading and protecting floors, skirting, and equipment. A durable, non-woven outer sleeve holds its shape when saturated and sits neatly along thresholds, walls, and bases of machines. Supplied as a pack of 10, they are suitable for homes, workshops, site cabins, plant rooms, and facilities maintenance. Use around windows, radiators, washing machines, fridges, freezers, vending machines, toilets, pumps, or small plant where water tracking is a risk. Each sock absorbs up to 3 litres for reliable, targeted control.
Key Features:
- Water-based spill control using absorbent polymers that turn liquid into gel for cleaner handling
- 1.0 m x 12 cm profile sits neatly along edges and under leak points for effective containment
- High capacity: up to 3 litres per sock; pack of 10 provides up to 30 litres total absorption
- Quick to deploy in emergencies; no tools or fixings required
- Helps form a barrier to stop water creeping under doors or across floors
- Suitable for rapid spills and slow, ongoing leaks; can be left in place for gradual absorption
- Tough outer sleeve resists tearing and minimises lint
- Flexible tube shape bends around corners and bases of equipment
- Reduces slip hazards by localising water to one controlled area
- Compact for storage in vans, workshops, and cleaning cupboards
Typical Applications:
Leak control around radiators, pipework, windowsills, and door thresholds; under washing machines, fridges, and freezers; beneath vending machines, water dispensers, and HVAC condensation points; around pumps, compressors, and cleaning equipment in workshops; lining skirting to stop tracking during minor ingress events and maintenance tasks.
