The Minelab twistlock pressure block (part 8008-0075) is the genuine inner clamp that lets your Equinox shaft lock tight. It's the piece that grips the shaft when you twist it closed — when a shaft starts slipping or won't stay extended, a worn pressure block is a common culprit.
You'll likely need all three twistlock parts
A complete twistlock rebuild uses three components. Order the full set so a single missing piece doesn't keep you off the field:
- 8008-0074 — Twistlock Body
- 8008-0075 — Twistlock Pressure Block (this part)
- 8008-0076 — Twistlock Washer
Want it all in one click? Grab the complete Twistlock Assembly, which bundles all three parts together.
Compatibility
- Minelab Equinox 600
