Bluestreak Equipment Wrasse 98

Pickup metal debris while using equipment you already own.

The Wrasse magnet bar extends the working power of your current equipment.

Available in a full range of sizes!

The Wrasse Series is an extremely versatile magnetic bar and good for many applications where the terrain is flat.  The Wrasse can be hung from almost any piece of equipment from utility vehicles to forklifts allowing the equipment operators to clean environments and pick up metal debris while they do their normal tasks.

While competing hanging magnet bars usually offer the 2″×5″ size, Bluestreak also offers two bigger, more powerful sizes of the Wrasse, the 3″×3″ and the 4.5″×4.5″ to allow even higher hanging heights if necessary and better performance.

And thanks to the optional Quick Clean Off Sleeve accessory for the Wrasse 4.5″×4.5″ model, it’s possible to clean the Wrasse off quickly and easily while the magnet is still in its hanging position underneath a piece of equipment.

Why does the Wrasse have a little fish as its logo?

The Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse (Labroides dimidiatus) is one of several species of cleaner Wrasse found on coral reefs in much of the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean.

Easily Attach to Your Equipment!

The Wrasse is designed to easily attach to equipment and vehicles you already own and use so that you can remove ferrous objects from terrain such as gravel, sand, grass and pavement while you do other jobs. The magnet comes standard with 2 attachment chains.

A Hanging Magnet for Flat Terrain.

The Wrasse magnet is good for areas that are relatively flat such as a paved parking lot or if it’s gravel and dirt with only some small normal potholes you would normally find in a gravel driveway.

The Wrasse hanging magnet is versatile and provides great value. You basically only pay for a big bar magnet, not wheels, handles and frames and as a result they are great value for what you get, which is essentially just a big magnet, so you can afford to buy a really strong one.

Once you hang the Wrasse on a vehicle it will work continuously while you go about doing your other work. So you don’t pay for extra labor time and money to just sweep up metal debris.

Because the Wrasse comes in a wide range of sizes that vary in both height, width and length, this magnetic bar can be hung from almost anything. You just look at your equipment for the best place to hang it. In most cases a place can be found to simply attach the magnet bar using the chains provided.

Some accessories are available for the Wrasse including a Quick Clean Off Sleeve for the Wrasse 4.5″x4.5″ and Fork Pockets that fit all sizes and widths.

3 Magnetic Housing Sizes

Magnetic Housing Sizes: 2″x 5″, 3″ x 3″ and 4.5″ x 4.5″

While competing hanging magnets are always in the 2″×5″ size range, Bluestreak always saw many of these magnets not performing well, not only because the magnets were spaced out in the housing, but just out of a necessity to hang these magnets higher to avoid damage. Bluestreak was already not spacing magnet blocks out within our housings, giving our 2″×5″ Wrasse more pickup power than competing 2″×5″ models. But Bluestreak also decided to offer two bigger more powerful sizes of the Wrasse, the 3″×3″ and the 4.5″×4.5″ to allow even higher hanging heights if necessary and better performance.

7 Magnetic Bar Lengths

Magnetic Bar Lengths: 26″, 38″, 50″ , 62″,  74″, 86″ and 98″

The Wrasse comes in lengths from 2 feet to 8 feet.

Add Forklift Pockets

Optional Fork Pockets accessory make it easy to attach a Wrasse magnet bar to your forklift.

Add a Quick Clean Off Sleeve

Optional extruded PVC Quick Clean Off Sleeve for removing debris from the  sweeper. Clean off the Wrasse while it is still in a hanging position underneath of your equipment, something that is not possible with a kick down plate design. If the debris is removed by using a kick down or toe plate then as soon as the plate is put back in its original position, the magnet would pick up all the debris again. Therefore a kick down plate never works for magnet clean off when the magnet is hanging, it only works if used with a forklift, where the forklift can pick the magnet up away from the ground. This Quick Clean Off Sleeve accessory is available for the Wrasse 4.5″ x 4.5″ size only.

Packed with Pickup Power!

Every Wrasse magnetic bar is packed end to end un-spaced with permanently charged magnets. A metal backing plate is included inside the housing to increase the size of the magnetic field and direct it downwards to increase performance. Be very careful to not just look at the magnet housing size when shopping for a magnetic bar, like the 2″×5″, or 3″×3″ or 4.5″×4.5″, these are just the dimensions of the housing that hold the magnets. What really matters when comparing magnetic sweepers, is the magnets in the housing, their grade and their quantity and if they are spaced or not. 

Note: On all models the remaining housing space above the magnet is used to accommodate a steel backing plate and mounting hardware.
