The Zircon MetalliScanner MT 6 electronic metal scanner locates and differentiates between ferrous metal (such as rebar) and non-ferrous metal (such as copper pipe) up to 6 inches (150 mm) deep in solid concrete and other non-metallic surfaces. Use the Zircon MT 6 to locate embedded metal before your drill bit or saw blade does. Find or avoid rebar, cables, pipe, hidden nails in reclaimed lumber, nails/tacks in studs behind lath & plaster walls, electrical boxes, conduit and more. This metal locator can act as a rebar detector to help map out the grid of metal through any nonmetallic construction material, including concrete, tile, stucco, paneling, drywall, plaster, and marble. This powerful metal detector also indicates the target depth in inches and centimeters. When the plus becomes a minus (-), you have crossed over the target and are now moving away. The Zircon MT6 comes complete with a protective aluminum case and a 9V battery. To get started, install the 9V battery and turn on the unit away from the surface being scanned. Note that the tool performs a calibration as soon as it is powered on. It is best to “pre-scan” the area first to get a general since of what will be detected. Place the unit on the scanning surface and move from side to side. The easy to read LCD screen indicates when you are approaching a metal object with a large plus (+) sign on the display. Then press the “Press to Recalibrate” button and repeat the procedure noting the depths of the items being detected. The MT 6 is now delivered to you in our Amazon exclusive easy to open packaging. Backed by our world class customer service and support, we at Zircon know that whether you're a Construction Professional or weekend DIY enthusiast, you'll find the Zircon MT 6 has the technology and durability you're looking for to get the job done right.
