Introduction
Finds Studs, Joists, Pipes, Conduit... Even Rebar!
TriScanner Pro uses advanced scanning technology to find metal (rebar, copper pipes), studs and joists behind walls, floors and ceilings.

Scans through drywall, plywood and most flooring, up to 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) thick to find wood and metal studs and joists while continuously detecting "hot" electrical wires (unshielded) for safety. Finds metal through surfaces up to 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) thick, or rebar in concrete to a depth of 3" (7.6 cm). LED display and audio signal indicate when target has been located.

Exclusive, patented features ensure instant calibration, reliability and performance.
