    This counterweight-ready carbon fiber rod set from Steve's Detector Rods transforms your Minelab Equinox into a more comfortable detecting machine. The threaded butt-end insert lets you add counterweights for better balance, while the lightweight carbon construction reduces arm fatigue during long hunts.

    Key Benefits

    • Counterweight compatibility - Threaded insert accommodates weights for perfect balance

    • Ultra-lightweight design - 4.81 oz upper and 3.06 oz lower rod reduce swing weight by 40%

    • Heavy-duty cam lock - Adjustable, removable clamp provides secure length adjustment

    • Custom length options - Standard 26" lower rod or request custom sizing

    • Four color choices - Black, red, blue, or green to match your style

    • Professional construction - 3K twill carbon fiber with glossy finish

    Perfect for Extended Detecting Sessions

    If you're spending hours in the field with your Minelab Equinox, you'll appreciate how much difference a lightweight shaft makes. The carbon fiber construction cuts weight significantly compared to the stock aluminum shaft, while the counterweight option lets you dial in perfect balance for your detecting style.

    The cam lock system uses injection-molded nylon construction that's both lightweight and durable. Unlike some aftermarket locks that slip under pressure, this one holds firm even when you're working in thick brush or rocky terrain.
