About This Shaft
Gold prospectors who travel to different claims or hike into backcountry areas know that detector transport can be a challenge. This collapsible shaft solves that problem by breaking your Gold Monster 1000 down into manageable sections. The shaft maintains the same ergonomics and balance as the original, so you won't sacrifice comfort during long detecting sessions.
The three-piece construction uses Minelab's proven locking mechanisms to ensure solid connections between segments. Each joint locks securely without play or wobble, maintaining the precise coil control you need for gold nugget hunting in tight spaces around rocks and vegetation.
What's Included
- 3-piece collapsible shaft assembly
- 2 replacement washers
This shaft is exclusively designed for the Minelab Gold Monster 1000 and won't fit other detector models.
