Renting a magnetic sweeper is a great way for construction firms and independent contractors to clean up after a job is done. Offering your customers a convenient option to use already available equipment to clean up metal debris adds value and keeps their business in house. Rental magnets need to be strong and reliable, Bluestreak’s line of magnetic sweepers for rental centers satisfy those requirements and come in many formats to accommodate any scenario or terrain.
The Powerstik Pro Elite is Bluestreak’s premium handheld magnetic sweeper built for professionals with over 2x more power than the original Powerstik. This additional power increases the speed you can clean an area by picking up more per pass and holding more debris before needing to clean the magnet.
The Pro Elite comes with the new Powerstik Quick Clean-Off sleeve that removes debris with a press of a button and slide of the sleeve. It also doubles as a wear bar to prevent damaging the aluminum housing when dragging on hard surfaces, it has four sides so you can flip it around multiple times when a side gets worn out.
The new adjustable height arm rest allows for easy maneuvering of the 4.3lbs sweeper by people of different heights.
The new rare earth Super Blue magnet system in this sweeper will pick up a nail from 3.25” and will hold an impressive amount of weight making it perfect for picking up any metal debris in tight spaces.
Available in 1 size: Powerstik Pro Elite 12″

The Lynx magnetic sweeper is powered by a permanently charged 4.5” x 4.5” C8 magnet assembly which is light enough to work on any skid steer or track loader and almost any sub compact tractor with loader arms and a universal skid steer adaptor plate.
The Lynx front mount magnet is powerful enough to hold onto a 108lbs I Beam and pick up a 2.5” inch nail from up to 8.5” inches off the ground. So it will have no problem collected most types of debris in the recommended sweeping height range of 2 to 5 inches.
With a sturdy 3/16” inch aluminum debris pan and wrap around function that snaps debris to the back of the magnet if the ground is hit, the Lynx can withstand ground strikes without losing collected debris. Optional debris digging rakes extend functionality of the Lynx by kicking embedded debris up out of the ground so it can get collected by the magnet while grooming the surface you are working on and giving a clear indicator of what areas have been swept.
Available in 1 size: Lynx 68″

No Hydraulic Connection Required
Just hook into the Meerkat and go without needing to attach hydraulic connections. The Meerkat is a powerful magnetic sweeper that attaches to any skid steer or track loader with a universal adapter plate. This sweeper has three pivoting C8 magnets that can pick up a 2.5” nail from 10” off the ground and easily release it using the gravity powered Swing-Out Clean-Off system.
The three magnet assemblies are each 6.8” W x 5.25” H x 20.75” L and pivot on UHMW bushings for a smooth action on clean-off that functions like emptying a normal bucket; using gravity to separate the magnets from the stainless debris pan which releases collected metal.
The Meerkat comes standard with attachment points to accommodate our optional Debris Digging Rake accessory which helps operators dig up embedded debris from hard packed surfaces while it smooths / grooms the area you’re working in and helps you see where you’ve swept already.
Available in 1 size: Meerkat 67″

The Sokoke magnetic sweeper is a bigger and stronger version of the existing Meerkat magnetic sweeper, The Sokoke is meant for tougher jobs and heavier equipment while also a viable option for skid steers. The bracket assemblies have pre-drilled bolt holes to accept one of five brackets available from Bluestreak Equipment. Allowing you to use the Sokoke on many popular front-end loader models or skid steers, depending on which bracket is purchased with the Sokoke.
This versatile magnetic sweeper has three 29”-inch x 9”-inch x 6.25”-inch magnet assemblies that pivot on UHMW bushings which allows the metal debris stuck on the stainless-steel debris pan to be separated from the magnetic field by swinging the magnets away from the debris pan using gravity.
This clean-off system allows the operator to raise the Sokoke over a scrap bin and empty the debris off by tipping it forward just like emptying a bucket. No one needs to manually handle the metal debris, which increases safety and efficiency.
The Sokoke also has the capability to accept the Debris Digging Rake accessory, this allows an operator to dig up debris that may be embedded under the surface after being runover by heavy machinery so it can be collected. The rakes also allow an operator to have a clear visual indicator of where they have swept while grooming the land, creating a more uniform surface.

The HOG magnetic sweeper is the little brother of the Rhino. Whereas the Rhino is designed for applications requiring significant pickup power, such as construction sites, horse arenas and small landfills where there is either significant amounts of debris or the debris needs to be pulled up from under dirt, the Hog is designed for the somewhat lighter use applications such as gravel and dirt parking lots, rental center users, trucking terminal yards and farm driveways and yards.
Easily tow this compact and light magnet with an ATV, UTV, lawn mower, golf cart, or forklift. The 62″ width of the HOG is perfect for these tow vehicles because these vehicles are this same general width.
Optional accessories for the HOG are the Quick Clean Off Sleeve which aids in cleaning collected debris from the magnet and the Debris Digging Rake built to dislodge debris embedded in the ground so it can be collected by the magnet.
Available in 1 size: HOG 62″

The Yacare magnetic sweeper is a 72 inch wide, durable off road tow behind magnetic sweeper with an easy to use Spring Assisted Clean Off system and torsion ride suspension that smooths out rough terrain!
The Yacare clean off system is entirely different from both the HOG and RHINO. It replaces the Quick Clean Off Sleeve system with an easier to use, more durable long term solution that’s especially helpful for heavy debris conditions.
More power and advanced durability provided by all steel and stainless steel construction and easy effortless clean off with dual debris release levers provide sound rationale to move up from the Rhino to the Yacare.
Yet the Yacare keeps all the features that makes the Rhino so popular; the pick up performance in off road conditions provided by the “wrap around” design, the adjustable sweep height, flat proof tires, adjustable hitch height and optional debris digging rake accessory. The suspension system also increases towability of the Yacare magnet through rough terrain, reducing strain on the chassis of the sweeper and tow vehicle.
Replacing the safety flags on the Rhino are the RED colored lid and “MAGNETIC SWEEPER” signage on the back of the Yacare unit, to ensure that high visibility is maintained.
This thing is built like a tank! Check out the CAD drawings.
Available in 1 sweeper width: Yacare 72″

Rental Centers need tools that a wide range of customers can use which is why we reommend 2 push models and 2 tow behind models, but have not recommended any hanging or front mount models. Hanging and front mount models require more advanced or custom mounting situations that your rental customers may have trouble with. But the simple wagon style hitch on the HOG and Rhino can be attached to almost anything; ATVs, UTVs, lawnmowers, small tractors, golf carts etc. When picking a Rental Center Magnetic Sweeper make sure it will be easy to use.

The RIP is the big brother of the Ecko, and the Rhino is the big brother of the HOG. Both the RIP and the Rhino have more power and a few more features. Rental users want to rent tools that are top of the line, to get the performance that doesn’t make sense for them to buy. I recommend the big brother versions, RIP and Rhino, for this reason.

Rental centers demand magnetic sweepers that can stand up to a variety of applications. People rent magnetic sweepers for all kinds of “do it yourself” construction and roofing projects or to clean up after seeing the nails and fasteners left by professional contractors.
A rental center magnetic sweeper needs to be durable and long lasting and it needs to stand up to repeated rentals and hard use by equipment renters without the need for constant repair because repairs take time, reducing the number of times a tool can be rented and repairs cost labor time and materials to fix reducing margins on rental revenues.
At the same time the rental centers need to attract rental customers with tools that equipment renters want to rent, tools that the renter believes will do the job well, and tools that look like they won’t break while being used, and tools that look like they are going to be comparatively easier to use than alternatives.
It is with these 3 things in mind that we recommend the Ecko, the RIP, the HOG and the Rhino rental center magnetic sweeper products.
Longevity and durability of the tool count in the rental business. That’s why our featured rental center magnetic sweeper products include things such as;
Accessories can be added to some magnetic sweepers to make the task of picking up debris easier. As a rental center consider whether your rental centers and renters will want these accessories.
We’ve found that most users like and prefer the quick clean off sleeve method for removing debris from the sweeper. A Quick Clean Off Sleeve makes cleaning off the magnet simple and easy. A Quick Clean Off Sleeve is available only for the Rhino magnetic sweeper.
About 30% of our buyers buy a Debris Digging Rake (DDR). A DDR does a lot of things; it loosens up embedded debris so the magnet can pick it up, it grooms at the same time, and it allows you to see what areas have been swept and in which direction so you don’t miss any areas. A DDR is available for both the HOG and Rhino.
