SHOVELHEAD

The Elastec ShovelHead (Specs) floating suction oil skimmer is a lightweight, suction skimmer that can be attached to a suction pump or vacuum system, such as Elastec’s diaphragm or peristaltic pumps, MiniVac or PACs vacuum trailer systems. We now manufacture a stainless steel version of the ShovelHead skimmer.

The ShovelHead suction skimmer is fitted with a 3 inch / 7.6 cm camlock fitting for rapid coupling of standard hose fittings. This robust suction oil skimmer head is manufactured in molded polyethylene and anodized aluminum.

The ShovelHead can recover a variety of oils or liquids from the water’s surface and is best suited in calm water conditions. The head can operate in minimal amounts of water due to a draft of only 2 inches / 50 mm. The floating suction oil skimmer head can be easily opened in the field for maintenance or cleaning. It is supplied with a 3 inch hose float.
