TracSweep® FBR-4 (4’0″ / 122 cm wide sweeping path)
The TracSweep® “Mini Sweep” is a compact four-foot-wide brush installed on a six-foot-wide trailer, the runway cleaner will collect debris efficiently in areas too large for a hand-pushed sweeper and too small for a full-sized runway or road sweeper.
Perfect for small or crowded airport cargo and passenger ramps, warehouse lots and parking areas.
TracSweep® FBR-8 (8’0″ / 244 cm wide sweeping path)
The TracSweep® “Doubleplay” version is designed for versatility, with a system of multiple brushes creating a solid eight-foot-wide sweeping path. Perfect for small- to mid-sized surfaces where you need just one debris sweeper that can clean a variety of areas, such as:
- Small general aviation airports with limited runway sweeping needs in addition to taxiways, ramps, parking lots and access roads that need periodic attention
- Industrial campuses with one- or two-lane access roads, or similar passageways between buildings
- Narrow dragstrips, lightly-used motor speedways and other high-performance automotive facilities that require periodic but not constant sweeping
TracSweep® FBR-11 (11’5″ / 348 cm wide sweeping path)
The TracSweep® “Standard Tri Link” version is designed to match the sweeping width — and exceed the performance — of large truck-mounted sweepers without their expensive maintenance and fuel costs.
By arranging three Mini Sweep debris sweepers in a triangular configuration, the Standard Tri Link gives you an eleven-foot-plus wide sweeping path that is perfect for small-to-medium sized airport runways and motor speedways, or medium-sized airport ramps or industrial lots.
TracSweep® FBR-22 (22’0″ / 670 cm wide sweeping path)
The TracSweep® “Super Tri Link” version is designed to collect debris from the largest airport runways and motor speedways quickly and efficiently.
By arranging three Doubleplay tow-behind debris sweepers in a triangular configuration, the Super Tri Link gives you a twenty-two-foot + wide sweeping path that is perfect for medium-to-large sized airport runways and motor speedways, or large and mostly empty airport ramps and industrial lots.

Environmental Advantage:
No Combustion – No Emissions
Unlike most Airport sweepers the TracSweep® Traction Powered line are built on light trailers, not heavy, gas-guzzling trucks. Weighing only 780 lbs / 353 kg (model FBR-8, empty weight), it can be towed by virtually any ground support vehicles.

Get Pricing!SIDE-MOUNTED DEBRIS HOPPERS
Unload FOD safely and easily. The TracSweep® efficiently deposits debris in easily accessible hoppers. Slide out, empty debris, slide back in. Each hopper will hold approximately 40-50 lbs / 18-23 kg.
DURABLE NYLON BRUSHES
The best long term durability and sweeping action available in a non-metallic bristle. Our nylon brushes will last twice as long as polypropylene alternatives. Replacement is easy and quick (20 minutes).
PINTLE HOOK OR BALL HITCH
With a full 21 inches of adjustment you can tow the TracSweep® behind virtually any vehicle, including high-clearance vehicles. Every unit also includes an adjustable wheeled support jack with foot brake.
MAGNETIC SWEEPER OPTION
Attach one of our optional POWER BAR™ Magnetic Sweepers to remove large and small ferrous metal debris that may be hiding below the surface in aircraft tie-downs, grounding points or concrete expansion joints.
ADJUSTABLE SWEEPING HEIGHT
A threaded stainless steel rod attached to a single hand crank makes adjusting brush height easy and fast. Turning the crank clockwise to raise the brush or turning the crank counter clockwise to lower the brush permits a very light bristle-to-ground contact which is all that’s needed with our superior nylon brushes.
DETACHABLE TOW BAR
Quick and easy deployment via air or truck if needed. With the tow bar detached and strapped to the unit, you can ship or store the sweeper in a vertical position, reducing space requirements.
