Ultra-fine debris like sand, silt, dirt, and pollen can be some of the hardest contaminants to remove from a pool—especially after storms, landscaping work, or windy conditions. The Stinger 18" Sand & Silt Pool Rake (LN4020) is specifically designed to capture fine, heavy debris that standard leaf rakes and skimmers allow to pass through.

Featuring a fine mesh net and a reinforced frame, this rake is built for pool floors and deep ends where sand and sediment settle. It’s a must-have tool for service professionals and pool owners dealing with dust, grit, and debris that vacuums or filters struggle to handle alone.

Why a Fine Mesh Sand & Silt Rake Matters

Sand and silt often sink quickly and spread across the pool floor, making them difficult to remove without stirring them back into suspension. Using the wrong net can turn cleanup into a losing battle.

Using a fine mesh sand and silt rake matters because it helps:

• Capture ultra-fine debris without letting it escape

• Remove sediment before it clouds the water

• Reduce filter strain and backwashing frequency

• Speed up cleanup after storms or construction nearby

The LN4020 is purpose-built for debris that standard nets miss.

How the Stinger Sand & Silt Pool Rake Works

This rake features an 18-inch wide reinforced frame paired with an ultra-fine mesh net that traps sand, dirt, pollen, and silt while allowing water to drain slowly. The controlled water flow helps keep fine debris inside the net instead of washing back into the pool.

Its design allows you to glide along the pool floor and gently scoop sediment without stirring it up excessively.

When to Use the Stinger LN4020 Sand & Silt Rake

This pool rake is ideal for:

• Sand and silt buildup on pool floors

• Dirt and dust after wind or storms

• Pollen and fine debris during seasonal changes

• Pools near landscaping, construction, or dirt areas

• Pre-vacuum cleanup to reduce filter loading

It is designed for submerged debris removal, not surface skimming.

Compatible with Standard Pool Poles

The Stinger LN4020 is designed to attach to standard telescopic pool poles, providing the reach and control needed for deep pools and large surface areas.

When paired with a rigid aluminum pole, it offers excellent stability and leverage for slow, controlled sediment removal.

Built for Professional-Level Cleanup

Constructed with a durable frame and high-quality fine mesh, this rake is designed to withstand repeated use without tearing or collapsing. It holds its shape under load while maintaining the precision needed for fine debris capture.

This makes it a dependable tool for professional service routes and detail-oriented pool owners.

Use & Care Best Practices

Move the rake slowly along the pool floor to allow sand and silt to settle into the net. Avoid fast movements that can stir debris back into suspension.

Rinse the net thoroughly after use to remove trapped sediment, and store out of direct sunlight to extend mesh life.
