The sock is a fine mesh bag that sits in the flow path and holds that material back at the vacuum instead of letting it travel on. The immediate benefit is water that clears rather than clouding as you vacuum, and less fine sediment loading the filter afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThey are consumables\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilt socks load up, and eventually the mesh wears or tears.
