SKIMLITE’S MAXI SERIES: M-16

The pocket “Stays” are sewn into the pocket to create a large opening for skimming, yet closes when pulled straight back. Using the Maxi Series like a brush on the bottom of a pool makes cleaning even the dirtiest of pools a snap! By keeping the pocket open, emptying this rake is easier. Whether you use the leafing edge or the rounded edge of the protective tubing, the Maxi Series allows debris to float into the pocket with every little effort. The leafing edge of the Maxi series is replaceable and can be done while at the pool. The Maxi Series comes in 16”(M16) and 16” Coarse Mesh(M80).
