The 9x12 coil cover is a protective accessory designed for Garrett ACE series metal detectors. ACE owners working parks, beaches, and fields face constant coil contact with rocks, roots, and abrasive soil that wears the stock search coil housing over time. This cover slips over the 9-inch by 12-inch elliptical coil to shield it from scratches and impact damage during ground contact.

Field Durability on the Garrett ACE Series
Park and Schoolyard Hunting
ACE detectorists working high-traffic parks encounter bottle caps, pull tabs, and buried metal fragments that create frequent coil contact points. The 9x12 cover absorbs impacts from these surface targets and prevents the coil housing from developing wear spots that expose internal wiring. We run this cover on our ACE units during grid searches in tot lots and picnic areas where the coil drags across mulch and compacted soil. The cover peels off quickly when you need to inspect the coil for debris buildup.
Beach and Wet-Sand Detecting
Saltwater beaches and riverbanks introduce sand abrasion and shell fragments that scratch unprotected coils. The cover shields the ACE coil from these abrasive particles while maintaining ground clearance for shallow target recovery. Rinse the cover after wet-sand hunts to flush salt and grit from the neoprene weave. ACE owners hunting tidal zones should inspect the cover periodically for tears, as sharp shells can puncture the material if dragged at aggressive sweep angles.
