Piranha Tow-Behind Magnets

When managing vast expanses like airport runways, flight lines, and highway networks, operational speed and uncompromised pickup power are critical. The Piranha™ is engineered specifically for high-capacity Foreign Object Debris (FOD) remediation, packing extreme magnetic density into a high-speed tow-behind platform built to cover maximum acreage in minimal time.

This high-velocity performance is driven by a dual-row magnetic super-core consisting of two massive rows of 4.5″ x 4.5″ magnetic housings. Each housing is packed end-to-end with three solid layers of un-spaced magnets and backed by an industrial steel flux plate that intensely amplifies and drives the magnetic field straight downward. Thanks to this immense magnetic field depth, the Piranha™ effortlessly pulls up heavy, sharp debris at faster towing speeds, dramatically reducing the time required to clear wide runways and long roadways. Because large-scale sweeps often take you miles away from a central facility, the unit features convenient, high-capacity onboard debris hoppers to store accumulated waste without forcing you to make frequent return trips. Furthermore, the sweeper comes equipped with heavy-duty, DOT-compliant highway tires and robust high-speed bearings, allowing maintenance crews to safely transport the unit at full road speeds directly from location to location.

The applications that benefit from using the Piranha include airport runways, tarmacs, highway construction, paving, road maintenance, military airbases, seaports, container terminals and large industrial manufacturing campuses.
