What Is Diamond Sock?

Sep 26, 2017 | Landscape Supply, Uncategorized

Are you looking for an alternative to silt fence and similar forms of sediment control? Why not try Diamond Sock™ instead? Check out some of the characteristics and benefits of this premium filter sock.  

What does Diamond Sock do? 

Diamond Sock was designed to hold back dirt, control sediment, and prevent erosion. It has a number of applications for construction sites and areas under development.  

Is it hard to install Diamond Sock? 

Compared to other products on the market, Diamond Sock is easy to install, and the removal process is simple, too. Diamond Sock doesn’t require trenching, and it supplies tight, reliable contact with the ground.  

How Permeable is Diamond Sock? 

Diamond Sock is more permeable than silt fence, which allows it to drain water more effectively. The rainwater and other liquids flow through, while the dirt and other sediment particles are held back. Tough and resilient, the lengths of Diamond Sock resist being washed away, and they can be reused if they are properly removed from the site.  

What are some other benefits of Diamond Sock? 

If you’re looking for a bargain, you’ll be glad to know that Diamond Sock’s prices are comparable to those of tradition sediment control options. The product effectively prevents flooding and pooling while permitting filtered, cleaner water to pass through. It’s flexible, so you can install it on lumpy ground, frozen ground, paved earth, or other difficult areas.  

What lengths are available? 

When you purchase from Kurtz Bros., you can buy Diamond Sock on a pallet in a continuous piece 190 feet long, or we can cut it down to 20-foot or 10-foot sections for you. You can select a diameter of 24, 28, 12, or 8 inches, depending on your needs. We’ll even deliver it to your job site.  

How can Diamond Sock be used? 

Diamond Sock works for a variety of applications. You can use it for perimeter control of a site, or you can install it as a diversion berm. It’s useful as a slope interruption method or a ditch check. You can also employ it for inlet protection.  

If you’re looking for a high-quality filter sock, consider investing in Diamond Sock, especially if you may need it for multiple applications. Its reusability, effective design, and environmental benefits make it one of the best products of its kind on the market. Contact Kurtz Bros., to order Diamond Sock or to find out about more products that facilitate green infrastructure and storm water management.
