Garrett 4.5 inch ACE Sniper Search Coil with Coil Cover, Lower Rod and Mounting Hardware

The Garrett ACE 4.5 inch Super Sniper kit pairs Garrett's smallest ACE coil, the 4.5 inch concentric Super Sniper (Garrett part 2221800), with a coil cover, a lower rod and the bolt, washers and nut to mount it, for standard ACE detectors such as the Garrett ACE 400. Garrett says the Sniper's concentrated field makes it very sensitive to small items in tight, trashy areas.

Garrett lists the ACE 4.5 inch Super Sniper for the standard ACE detectors above and says it is not for use with the Garrett ACE Apex, which takes Garrett's Multi-Flex coils. Garrett also makes AT versions of its coils, and those work only with AT detectors, so check that the coil you order is the ACE version.

When to use the ACE 4.5 inch Super Sniper

Garrett calls the 4.5 inch Super Sniper the smallest accessory coil it makes for ACE series detectors, ideal for shallow targets and tight, trashy areas where a larger coil would struggle. Garrett says its tight field and small size isolate metal targets from junk or iron-rich surroundings, give better target separation than a stock or larger coil, and let you work closer to large metal objects such as poles or fences. Garrett names coins, rings, jewelry, copper wire and gold flakes among the small targets it suits.

We would save the Super Sniper for the worst of the trash and for corners a full-size coil cannot get into, and plan on searching slowly with it, taking time over each signal before you dig. It gives up ground covered per sweep and depth: Garrett says the Super Sniper does not increase detection depth, since larger coils generally do that better, so for open ground we would put the stock coil back on.

Garrett says the coil is fully waterproof and can be safely submerged near streams, creeks and beaches, but ACE detectors are not fully waterproof, so the control box must stay dry. When you mount the coil, tighten the bolt only until it is snug, so the mounting ears on the coil are not squeezed out of shape. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.
