Oil-only absorbents float and shed water, so they keep working on an oil spill even on wet ground, in the rain, or on water — where a universal absorbent would soak up the water too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eWhen should I choose oil-only over a universal kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eChoose oil-only when the spill is oil or fuel and water may be present — outdoors, on wet floors, or on water. Choose universal (the KIT21\/KIT213) when you need to absorb water-based liquids like coolant too. Oil-only repels water; universal absorbs it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eHow much does it absorb, and what spill sizes is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIt has 4.5-gallon absorbency and is sized for spills of roughly 1 to 9 gallons. Note the 6.5-gallon figure is the bucket size, not the absorbency — the absorbent capacity is 4.5 gallons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eIs it safe to use around fuels and flammables?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eYes. The PIG Stat-Mat pads meet ANSI and MIL-SPEC static-decay standards, meaning they dissipate static rather than building a charge, which is why they're rated for use with fuels and flammables. That doesn't remove the fire hazard — keep ignition sources away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eWhat's in the 14-piece kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 3-in x 10-ft PIG Skimmer absorbent sock, a 3-in x 48-in oil-only sock, four PIG Stat-Mat absorbent pads, six tamperproof labels, and two disposal bags with ties, all in a screw-lid polyethylene bucket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eIs it for acids or aggressive chemicals?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eNo. Oil-only absorbents are for oil and hydrocarbon liquids, not acids, bases, oxidizers, or other aggressive chemicals. For those, use a chemical-specific or acid-neutralizing kit and check the safety data sheet first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eDoes it really work on water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eYes — because it repels water and floats, it can skim oil off the surface of water or work on an oil spill in a wet area without becoming waterlogged. That's the core advantage of oil-only over universal absorbents outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0f1111;\"\u003eCan I reuse the bucket for disposal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eYes.

The KIT600's answer is an \u003cstrong\u003eabsorbent powder that amalgamates the mercury with zinc\u003c\/strong\u003e — binding the liquid into a solid that can actually be collected, and \u003cstrong\u003esuppressing the vapour\u003c\/strong\u003e coming off the spill while you work. One kit treats \u003cstrong\u003eup to 1,000 grams of visible mercury\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is well beyond what a thermometer, manometer, or lamp holds — a different proposition entirely from the \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/guides\/best-spill-kits\"\u003egeneral-purpose kits\u003c\/a\u003e most facilities stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAround that powder sits the rest of the response: \u003cstrong\u003egoggles and gloves\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emercury cleanup wipers\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003espatula\u003c\/strong\u003e for working beads out of seams, a \u003cstrong\u003edust pan and hand broom\u003c\/strong\u003e for the treated residue, \u003cstrong\u003epolyethylene disposal bags\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a chemical-resistant \u003cstrong\u003epolyethylene bucket with a screw-on lid\u003c\/strong\u003e that stores the kit and then contains the waste. Everything lives in one grab-and-go container, which is the whole point — mercury response is not the moment to be assembling supplies from three cupboards. It sits alongside the rest of your \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spill-control\"\u003espill response stock\u003c\/a\u003e rather than replacing any of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"background:#1a2733;color:#e0e0e0;border-radius:6px;padding:16px 20px;margin:22px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color:#4fc3f7;\"\u003eRead this before use:\u003c\/strong\u003e The PPE in this kit is \u003cstrong\u003egoggles and gloves — contact protection\u003c\/strong\u003e. Mercury's principal route of harm is \u003cstrong\u003einhaled vapour\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is invisible and odourless, and \u003cstrong\u003eno respiratory protection is included\u003c\/strong\u003e. The powder suppresses vapour; it does not remove it. \u003cstrong\u003eNever vacuum mercury\u003c\/strong\u003e — a vacuum aerosolizes it and contaminates the machine permanently — and never sweep it while it is still liquid, because a broom only breaks it into smaller beads. Amalgamation binds mercury rather than destroying it, so the residue, wipers, and gloves all remain regulated mercury waste. Handle the spill as you would any chemical splash hazard: goggles sealed, gloves on, area ventilated and cleared. If the spill is large, has reached a drain, carpet, sub-floor, or ductwork, or exceeds what you are trained and equipped to handle, stop and contact your state or local environmental or health agency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 style=\"border-bottom:2px solid #ff9800;padding-bottom:6px;\"\u003eThe Right Order of Operations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eMost mercury cleanups go wrong in the first two minutes, not the last. Clear people from the area and stop anyone walking through the spill — shoes will track mercury across a building. Increase ventilation to the outside and shut down HVAC that would push vapour into other rooms; do not raise the temperature, because warmth increases the vapour coming off the metal.

The bucket is chemical resistant and opens easily, which matters when you are reaching for it under pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eHow much mercury can the powder handle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe absorbent powder transforms up to 1,000 grams of visible mercury into a zinc amalgam. For scale, that is far more than a broken thermometer or a fluorescent lamp contains, so a single kit covers the small-spill scenarios most facilities plan for — a broken instrument, a dropped manometer, a lamp breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eDoes the kit protect me from mercury vapour?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eNot directly, and this is the most important thing to understand about any mercury kit. The included PPE is goggles and gloves — contact protection. Mercury's principal hazard is inhaled vapour, which is invisible and odourless, and no \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/guides\/when-do-you-need-a-respirator\"\u003erespiratory protection\u003c\/a\u003e comes in the box. The powder suppresses vapour to limit exposure during cleanup, but suppression is not removal. Ventilate the area, keep people out, and if the spill is beyond a small one, get qualified help rather than improvising.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eCan I vacuum up a mercury spill?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eNever. A vacuum breaks mercury into a fine aerosol and blows vapour through the room, and the machine itself becomes contaminated and has to be discarded as mercury waste. This is the single most common and most damaging mistake in mercury cleanup. The same goes for shop vacs and central vacuum systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe kit includes a broom — so can I sweep the mercury?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eSweep the treated material, not the liquid. Raw liquid mercury hit with a broom just scatters into smaller beads that are harder to find and have more surface area to give off vapour. The sequence is: apply the absorbent powder first, let it amalgamate the mercury into a solid, then use the dust pan and hand broom to collect the treated residue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat does \"amalgamation\" actually do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe zinc powder chemically binds the liquid mercury into a solid amalgam. That makes it collectable instead of rolling into cracks, and it dramatically cuts the vapour coming off the spill. What it does not do is destroy the mercury — the amalgam is still a mercury-bearing material and must be handled and disposed of as mercury waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eHow do I dispose of what I collect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAs regulated mercury waste, through your hazardous waste stream — never in general refuse, never down a drain, and never outdoors. That includes the amalgam, the used wipers, the \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/guides\/best-chemical-resistant-gloves\"\u003egloves\u003c\/a\u003e, and anything else that touched the spill. Bag it in the polyethylene disposal bags, seal it in the container, and route it per your local, state, and federal requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat should I do in the first minute of a spill?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eGet people out of the immediate area and keep them from walking through it — shoes track mercury a long way. Increase ventilation to the outside, and shut down any HVAC that would circulate vapour into other rooms. Do not turn up the heat, since warmth raises the vapour rate. Then put on the gloves and \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/guides\/best-safety-goggles-2026\"\u003egoggles\u003c\/a\u003e and work the spill from the outside in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhen is a spill too big for this kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eJudgment call, but the honest rule is that a kit is for small, contained spills you are trained and equipped to handle. If the spill is large, if mercury has gone down a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/new-pig-plr412-drain-cover\"\u003edrain\u003c\/a\u003e or into carpet, sub-floor, or heating ducts, or if you have no way to control vapour exposure, stop and contact your state or local environmental or health agency. Cleanup you are not equipped for makes the contamination worse, not better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat about contaminated clothing and shoes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eDo not put them in a washing machine — mercury contaminates the machine and then everything washed in it afterward. Contaminated clothing, shoes, and rags are handled as mercury waste, the same as the amalgam. This is why keeping people out of the spill area from the start saves a great deal of trouble later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhere should the kit be stored?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWithin reach of wherever mercury-bearing equipment actually lives — a lab bench, an instrument room, a maintenance area with older thermostats or manometers. The screw-lid poly bucket is self-contained and chemical resistant, so it can sit on a shelf, and it should be somewhere staff can identify without hunting. Check the contents periodically so the kit is complete when you need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eDo I still need a general spill kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eYes — mercury kits are single-purpose.
