Use The Sidewinder Tube Oil Skimmer for Shallow Sumps

Use The Sidewinder Tube Oil Skimmer for Shallow Sumps

Tackling oil contamination in shallow CNC machine sumps has never been easier, thanks to the revolutionary Sidewinder Tube Oil Skimmer. Say goodbye to the struggles of accessing tight spaces and swift tramp oil removal with the Sidewinder Tube Oil Skimmer. 


Unlike conventional solutions like belt or disk skimmers, the Sidewinder stands out as a compact yet powerful tool designed specifically for spaces where size matters. Engineered for agility, it easily navigates through narrow openings. 

Embodying the essence of "American-Made, American-Quality," the Sidewinder is proudly manufactured at our facility in Solon, OH.


This cutting-edge surface oil removal system employs an oleophilic (oil-attracting) continuous looped tube. What sets this skimmer apart is its remarkable ability to operate effectively even in shallow fluids, requiring mere inches rather than the typical one to two feet of water needed by belt skimmers.


Functioning on the principle shared with belt skimmers, the Sidewinder's looped tube breaks the water's surface tension, allowing the oil to adhere to the outside of the tube. Our unique design then collects and removes the skimmed oil.


Want even more savings on your coolant? Add a diverter attachment! Return the coolant that is picked up with the tramp oil back to your sump and divert the oil into a bucket for disposal. It’s that easy!
