Abanakis Tote-it Oil Skimmer With New Removable Trough Facilitates Easy Cleaning

By:


In their continued effort to help companies save money while also saving the environment, the Abanaki Corporation, the world leader in oil skimming products, has redesigned its Tote-It portable oil skimmer make clean up and oil disposal easier.

Abanaki's roots in pollution control stretch back to 1949, when two entrepreneurs founded the company that became Abanaki. Today, under the corporate motto "Clean Our World," Abanaki continues to address pollution in industry through innovation, customer commitment and environmental stewardship within its own operations. Today, Abanaki manufactures a wide range of products to remove oils, greases, solvents, and related hydrocarbons from water.

Well-suited for removing oil from parts washing and machining center applications,
the redesigned Tote-It oil skimmer reduces bacteria growth in tanks along with resulting odor. Removing up to 12 gallons of free-floating oil from water per hour, the single assembly skimmer, is easy to move around a facility and can be hand carried to any indoor or outdoor application. It can also be used in permanent installations with limited access areas. The oil skimmers mount easily and require minimal maintenance and cleaning.

Designed for dependability and low maintenance, the Tote-It oil skimmer uses Abanaki's proprietary belt skimmers that perform as the most inexpensive method to remove oil from water. The belt skimmer attracts oil and other hydrocarbon liquids from the surface of the fluid, where the contaminants are then scraped off the sides of the belt and easily discharged.
There are many manufacturing and industrial applications for the Tote-It oil skimmer, including:

  • Saving coolants by removing tramp oil

  • Conserving wash water and prevents recontamination of parts as they are removed from wash tank

  • Preventing plugging of spray heads and filters

  • Reducing fluid disposal costs and helps meet government requirements for water discharge

  • Skimming oil can be recycled and reused as a lubricant or fuel

  • Effective even in turbulent fluids and fluctuating fluid levels

  • Requiring no tank modifications in most applications


  • Abanaki offers a variety of belt materials and widths, depending on the application. Oil skimming specialists consult with customers to identify the proper belt dimensions, materials and length for the specific application.
