Stinger 18" Regular Mesh Leaf Rake – Heavy-Duty Pool Net | LN4000
Power Through Debris with the Stinger 18" Regular Mesh Leaf Rake
When heavy leaves, twigs, and debris hit your pool, you need a tool that’s tough enough to handle it. The Stinger 18" Regular Mesh Leaf Rake (LN4000) is built for serious cleaning performance — combining a rugged frame, deep debris pocket, and smooth-gliding mesh that makes pool maintenance fast, easy, and efficient.
Engineered for both residential pool owners and professional service techs, this heavy-duty rake captures everything from floating leaves to submerged debris. With its 18-inch-wide mouth and reinforced aluminum frame, the Stinger LN4000 is the ultimate tool for keeping your pool spotless all season long.
Built Tough for Daily Use
Durable Frame for Long-Term Reliability
The Stinger LN4000 Leaf Rake features a reinforced aluminum frame that stands up to the toughest cleaning jobs. It resists bending, cracking, and corrosion — even after seasons of heavy use. Whether you’re clearing out spring leaf buildup or cleaning after a storm, this rake can handle the weight and pressure without warping.
Standard 18-Inch Width for Maximum Coverage
At 18 inches wide, this pool rake covers more surface area with every sweep. The wide mouth allows for faster cleanup, reducing the number of passes needed to clear large pools, while the angled edge easily slides along the bottom and sides of your pool.
Regular Mesh for Versatile Cleaning
The regular mesh net strikes the perfect balance between strength and flow. It traps medium to large debris — such as leaves, flowers, and acorns — while allowing water to pass through freely. This makes it ideal for both surface skimming and scooping up heavier debris from the pool floor.
Heavy-Duty Handle Connection
The handle features a reinforced quick-connect socket that locks securely onto any 1.25-inch standard telescopic pole. Whether you’re using your existing pole or upgrading to a Stinger extendable model, the LN4000 connects easily for a stable, reliable fit.
Performance You Can Feel
The Stinger LN4000 isn’t just built strong — it’s designed smart. Every curve and edge is engineered for performance, from the tapered leading edge that glides effortlessly across the surface to the contoured net that collects and retains debris efficiently.
The result? Faster cleaning with less drag, reduced wrist fatigue, and a cleaner pool in less time.
Why Pool Pros and Homeowners Choose Stinger
1. Professional-Grade Construction
Trusted by technicians and pool maintenance professionals, the Stinger LN4000 is made to perform day after day. Its durable frame and tough mesh resist UV exposure, chlorine degradation, and chemical wear.
2. Quick Cleanup After Windy Days
High winds can leave your pool covered in leaves and debris overnight. The LN4000’s large capacity and sturdy build make it the perfect tool for fast recovery cleaning — even when your pool is full of heavy organic matter.
3. Efficient for Deep and Surface Cleaning
Use it to skim the surface for floating debris or plunge deeper to scoop leaves from the bottom. The mesh and rake depth work together to capture debris without backflow or spilling.
4. Reduces Filter and Pump Strain
Removing debris manually helps prevent clogs and reduces the workload on your filtration system. This translates to longer pump life, cleaner water, and lower maintenance costs.
5. Designed for Comfort and Control
The lightweight yet balanced construction allows smooth maneuvering without unnecessary strain, making it ideal for daily use — even in commercial or multi-pool environments.
