    Protect your investment with the genuine Minelab 15x12 elliptical coil cover, also known as a skid plate. This wear plate snaps onto the underside of your 15x12 Commander search coil and takes the abuse so your coil does not have to. If you detect in rocky, abrasive or heavily mineralized ground, a coil cover is the cheapest insurance you can buy.

    The cover absorbs impacts from rocks and gravel, blocks dirt and grit from packing against the coil housing, and shields the coil from the scrapes that come with daily prospecting. Replacing a worn cover costs a fraction of replacing a damaged search coil, which is why serious detectorists keep one on every coil.

    Compatibility

    This 15x12 elliptical cover is designed for the Minelab Commander 15x12 search coil and fits these detectors:

    • Minelab GPX 5000, GPX 4800, GPX 4500 and GPX 4000
    • Minelab GP Extreme and GP 3000 series
    • Minelab SD 2100, SD 2200 and earlier SD series
    • Any detector running the Commander 15x12 DD or mono elliptical coil

    Why detectorists add a coil cover

    • Guards against rock strikes, abrasion and everyday wear
    • Keeps dirt and grit from building up under the coil
    • Extends the life of an expensive search coil
    • Quick to fit and easy to replace when worn
    • Genuine Minelab part for a precise, secure fit
