Reduce Erosion, Increase Filtration, and Retain Soil with our Silt Socks!
Silt Socks consist of a machine produced high-altitude Rocky Mountain Aspen excelsior matrix confined by a synthetic, tubular net to form a log of specific length, mass and diameter. Logs are designed to reduce hydraulic energy and filter sediment-laden flow in channels and on slopes. The logs are flexible, to conform to soil surfaces, and are secured by staking to create a temporary water-permeable structure. Once in place, the Logs provide fast, efficient filtration that offers superior flow interception, filtration and containment properties. They are specifically engineered to be used on slopes to minimize displacement of in-situ sediments, in channels, as small check dams, and to restrict sediment-laden flow from inlets. 100% biodegradable and custom lengths are available. In general, the logs provide better filtering of runoff waters, prevent check dam blowouts, protect water from going around check dams, prevent spread of non-native vegetation and are generally easier to handle and install than straw bales.
The Dimensions Of This Product are 8in x 20ft. This product has a functional longevity of 4-6 years.
- Sediment Control – Environmentally friendly silt sock provide precise sediment control, superior to large erosion control blankets and silt fences. The organic material allows controlled water flow while trapping sediment and debris, ensuring effective erosion prevention.
- Pollutant Filtration – Our filter socks are highly effective in filtering pollutants from stormwater, including chemicals, sewage overflow, and construction debris. They offer superior filtration compared to traditional silt fences.
- Stormwater Management – Manage stormwater runoff effectively with our silt sock, preventing downstream flooding and erosion. Ideal for areas where large-scale erosion control measures are impractical.
- Walls, Barriers, & Slopes – Our silt socks provide protection for various landscapes, preserving soil on slopes and preventing stormwater damage. They are an excellent choice for natural barriers and foundation protection.
- Premium Erosion Control – Farm Plastic Supply offers premium heavy erosion control products for all uses. Our erosion control products are quality and durable. Our Straw Wattles are dependable and have been a favorite among our many customers.
