The DetectorPro Hip Hanger is a belt-mounted tether that lets you go hands-free while digging targets or sorting finds. It prevents you from dropping your metal detector by securing it to your belt loop, belt, finds pouch, or backpack. Detectorists working trashy parks or high-target-density sites reach for the Hip Hanger when they need both hands free for recovery without laying the detector on the ground. The clip-and-loop design attaches in seconds and works with any detector brand or model that has a standard carry handle or stem grip.
What's Included with the DetectorPro Hip Hanger
- DetectorPro Hip Hanger with dual-attachment clip system
- Adjustable webbing strap for belt or pack mounting
Why Detectorists Working High-Target Sites Reach for the Hip Hanger
- Hands-free operation when digging or pinpointing keeps your detector secure without setting it down in wet grass, sand, or dirt
- Dual-clip system attaches quickly to belt loops, belts, finds pouches, or backpack straps
- Universal compatibility works with any detector brand that has a carry handle or stem grip, no model-specific brackets required
- Prevents drops on rocky ground or hillside hunts where laying the detector down risks sliding or tip-over damage
Dual-Clip Belt Attachment for Quick-Release Access
The Hip Hanger uses a two-point attachment system: a heavy-duty clip that secures to your belt loop or belt edge, and an adjustable webbing strap that wraps around your detector's carry handle or stem grip. The clip is spring-loaded for quick release when you need to swing the detector, and the webbing strap adjusts to fit handles from 1 inch to 3 inches in diameter. The nylon construction resists abrasion from repeated clipping and unclipping across multi-hour hunts. Detectorists working metal detector parts & accessories setups with large finds pouches or backpack carry systems mount the Hip Hanger to the pouch's belt loop or pack strap for weight distribution across the hip rather than the waistband.
