Garrett 8.5" x 11" DD Multi-Flex Raider Search Coil for Ace Apex Metal Detector

The Garrett 8.5" x 11" DD Multi-Flex Raider coil is a waterproof elliptical search coil that provides greater depth and improved target ID coverage than the stock Ace Apex coil. Ace Apex owners working large open sites (parks, fields, beaches) benefit from the wider sweep pattern, which covers more ground per pass and reaches targets at depth. Multi-Flex coil technology makes this coil compatible exclusively with the Garrett Ace Apex metal detector; it will not work with older ACE models, and older ACE coils will not work on the Apex detector.

What's Included with the Garrett 8.5" x 11" DD Raider Coil

• Garrett 8.5" x 11" DD Multi-Flex Raider search coil for Ace Apex

Why Ace Apex Owners Reach for the 8.5" x 11" DD Raider Coil

• Wider sweep coverage reduces the number of passes needed to grid a large site, letting you cover a beach or park hunt in less time.
• Deeper target reach pulls signals from coins and relics the stock coil leaves in the ground, especially in mineralized soil where smaller coils lose penetration.
• Elliptical DD geometry maintains target separation in trashy areas while delivering the depth advantage of a larger coil footprint.
• Waterproof construction lets you hunt shallow water, wet sand, and rain without worrying about coil damage or signal loss.
• Looking for tighter maneuverability in dense trash? The 5" x 8" DD Ripper coil trades coverage for pinpoint accuracy in crowded iron sites.

Deeper Coverage in Open Field and Beach Hunts

Park and School Yard Hunts with the Garrett Ace Apex

The 8.5" x 11" footprint covers more ground per swing than the stock coil, which matters when you are gridding a large park or athletic field where targets are scattered. The DD configuration keeps target separation tight enough to work around aluminum trash and pull tabs, while the larger size increases detection depth on silver coins and jewelry in typical soil. The waterproof rating means you can hunt through morning dew, light rain, or puddles without adjusting your hunt plan.

Wet Sand and Shallow Water Detecting

Saltwater beaches demand a coil that stays stable in mineralized wet sand and handles submersion when waves wash over it. The 8.5" x 11" Raider coil's waterproof construction and DD ground-canceling design let you work the surf line and tidal pools where gold rings and silver settle after storms. The larger coil footprint covers more sand per pass, critical when you have a narrow window between tides.
