Steve's carbon rods solve the weight issue while actually improving rigidity. The upper shaft's one-piece construction stops that annoying wobble you get with stock shafts after some use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower rod design is clever - it's slightly longer than factory but keeps the spring button in the same spot. This means more rod stays inserted in the middle section when you adjust length, creating a more stable connection. You get better balance without changing how your \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/minelab-equinox-series\"\u003eMinelab Equinox metal detector\u003c\/a\u003e feels in your hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese rods work with both Equinox 600 and 800 models.
