Introduction

Don't Work Blind!
MetalliScanner® 6.0 finds rebar, metal pipes, conduit, metal studs, junction boxes and metal framing up to 6 inches (15.2 cm) deep.

Scans through most non-metallic construction materials, including solid concrete.

Large LCD display pinpoints the location of metal targets to the nearest inch (2.5 cm) and depth to the nearest 1/2 inch (1.25 cm).

Differentiates between materials based on their magnetic properties distinguishing copper pipe from steel rebar within slabs or walls.

Easy to use with one-touch operation and comfortable handgrip.
