    The XP S-Telescopic Stem is a collapsible shaft assembly for the XP Deus and Deus II detectors, built with a patented telescoping mechanism that folds the detector to 65cm for backpack storage. Deus and Deus II owners hunting remote parks, hiking trails, or multi-site days need a stem that collapses in seconds without tools. The S-Telescopic Stem solves the transport problem: fold it in five seconds, store the detector in a standard daypack, and move between sites without a full-length shaft. This streamlined configuration keeps your travel setup completely compatible with the advanced metal detector technologies built into your XP system.

    What's Included with the XP S-Telescopic Stem

    • XP S-Telescopic Stem assembly with rubber grip and telescoping mechanism
    • Arm cup and armstrap

    Lower stem and coil hardware are sold separately and must be ordered to complete the shaft assembly.

    Why Deus and Deus II Owners Reach for the S-Telescopic Stem

    • Instant storage in five seconds: collapse the stem without tools and fit the detector in a backpack when equipped with a 9-inch coil, solving the transport problem for multi-site hunts.
    • Ergonomic rubber grip designed to match hand shape and grip angle, reducing wrist fatigue on long hunts compared to straight cylindrical shafts.
    • Compatible with both Deus and Deus II detector systems, allowing you to swap the stem between platforms if you own multiple XP metal detectors.
    • Adjustable length for varied terrain: extend for open-field sweeps, collapse for tight brush or kneeling work, and lock at any height.
    • Patented telescoping mechanism built for repeated field use, designed by XP's research department to handle daily folding cycles without play or wobble.

    Faster Site-to-Site Mobility with Collapsible Storage

    Remote park hunts and trail-access sites often require hiking between locations. The S-Telescopic Stem collapses to 65cm when paired with a 9-inch coil, fitting inside a standard daypack. You fold the stem in five seconds by releasing the telescoping lock, no tools required. Once folded, the detector rides vertically in the pack's main compartment, leaving room for a digger, finds pouch, and water. We've used this stem on multi-site days where each location is a half-mile hike from the trailhead; the collapsible design eliminates the need to carry a full-length shaft across terrain.

    Backpack Hunts and Air Travel

    On backpack hunts, the stem's compact form factor allows you to stow the detector during stream crossings or steep climbs, then reassemble in seconds when you reach the search zone.

    Is the XP S-Telescopic Stem compatible with both the original Deus and the Deus II?

    The XP S-Telescopic Stem is compatible with both the XP Deus and the XP Deus II metal detectors. XP designed the stem to work across both platforms, so you can swap it between systems if you own multiple devices from our wider selection of XP Metal Detectors - Authorized US Dealer gear. The telescopic design provides instant storage and greater maneuverability than conventional straight stems, and the patented mechanism collapses in seconds for transport. The stem ships with the upper assembly, arm cup, and armstrap.

    What additional parts do I need to complete the shaft assembly?

    The S-Telescopic Stem ships with the upper stem assembly, arm cup, and armstrap, but you need to order the lower stem and coil hardware separately to complete the shaft. The lower stem connects the S-Telescopic upper section to your coil, and the coil hardware includes the mounting screws and spacers that secure the coil to the lower stem. Check the coil size you plan to use and order the matching lower stem and hardware kit to finish the assembly. The coil hardware kit uses reinforced plastic screws and includes a top hat spacer that XP recommends changing regularly to avoid damaging the coil fastening lugs.

    How small does the detector fold when using the S-Telescopic Stem?

    The detector folds to 65cm in length when the S-Telescopic Stem is collapsed and paired with a 9-inch coil. This folded dimension fits inside a standard daypack's main compartment, making it practical for multi-site hunts where you hike between locations. The telescopic design allows you to collapse the stem of your detector and store it in your backpack in just a few seconds. The stem provides instant storage while remaining adjustable at any time to adapt to your desired search height during detecting.

    Answered by Dan P. · May 2026

    Does the telescoping mechanism stay locked during detecting, or does it slip under swing pressure?

    The S-Telescopic Stem uses a patented telescoping lock that holds the stem rigid at any adjusted length during detecting. XP designed the mechanism for repeated field use, and the lock stays secure during active detecting. The stem is ergonomic and adapts to your desired search height but remains adjustable at any time. The lock releases in seconds when you're ready to fold the stem for storage, providing instant storage capability. The patented design ensures the stem maintains its set length throughout your detecting session.

    Can I use the S-Telescopic Stem with the WS4 headset mounted on the shaft?

    The S-Telescopic Stem accepts the XP stem holder for the WS4 headset, allowing you to mount the WS4 on the shaft and use it as a remote control. The stem holder is an accessory designed for XP Deus detectors and is sold separately along with the WS4 headset. The stem holder turns your WS4 headset into a remote control when mounted on the stem. Both the stem holder and WS4 are compatible with the S-Telescopic design. For more on how the WS4 integrates with XP detectors, see our guide on metal detector technologies.

    Is the ergonomic grip noticeably different from a standard straight shaft?

    The S-Telescopic Stem's ergonomic rubber grip is contoured to match hand shape and features an improved grip angle compared to standard cylindrical shafts. XP's research department studied ergonomics and developed a rubber grip designed to fit the shape of your hand. The improved grip angle and contoured design provide enhanced comfort during extended detecting sessions. The rubber material and ergonomic shape represent a significant upgrade over standard foam grips found on conventional straight stems, offering better control and comfort throughout your hunt.

    Answered by Dan P. · May 2026

    Does the S-Telescopic Stem work with XP ORX detectors?

    The S-Telescopic Stem is designed for the XP Deus and Deus II detectors and is not officially listed as compatible with the XP ORX. XP markets the S-Telescopic Stem specifically for the Deus family of detectors. If you own an ORX and need a collapsible or ergonomic shaft option, contact XP or an authorized dealer to confirm compatibility before ordering. The S-Telescopic Stem is purpose-built for the Deus family and ships with hardware specific to those models, including the arm cup and armstrap designed for Deus detector configurations.
