Counterweight Adapter "Kit"

BRAND NEW!!!

Our counterweight adapter kits (designed specifically for use with the Minelab Manticore and Equinox 700/900, but also compatible with several other detectors/shafts), include one of our counterweight adapters (more information here), along with an end cap and the necessary Allen wrench to install, PLUS one of our counterweights (either the 4 1/2", 17 oz. model, or the 7", 28 oz. model).

While folks who already own one of our counterweights will only need the adapter itself (which can be purchased separately here), this kit includes BOTH the adapter AND the counterweight.

For more information regarding counterweighting, whether it may benefit you, and the science behind it, please see our "FAQ" page here (specifically, questions 2 through 7).
