GARRETT AT GOLD 5x8

This high-performance detector is built to locate tiny gold fragments and other precious metals, even in challenging environments. Thanks to its waterproof construction, it can be used both on land and underwater (up to approximately 3 meters deep). An ideal device for anyone searching for gold, coins, jewelry, or other metals – from hobbyist to seasoned treasure hunter.

Specifically optimized for gold prospecting

What sets this detector apart is its high operating frequency of 18 kHz. This allows it to detect even the smallest gold flakes – a feat many other detectors can’t achieve. It's an excellent choice for use in gold-rich regions such as Africa, South America, or Australia. Even in rocky, mineral-rich, or difficult terrains, the unit maintains excellent performance.

Fully waterproof and digital

With a sealed housing, this device is suitable for use in rivers, lakes, and wet conditions. Note: it is optimized for use in freshwater and less suited for saltwater environments. The digital display provides clear feedback, using measurement units in centimeters instead of inches – ideal for European users.

Precise metal detection with visual and numeric feedback

When a target is detected, you’ll hear an audio alert and see a number (1–99) on the screen. Each number corresponds to a specific type of metal. Simultaneously, visual segments offer extra context, helping you assess the type of metal beneath the surface – from iron to precious metals.

Compact DD search coil for detailed detection

Equipped with a 13 x 20 cm (5 x 8 inch) elliptical DD search coil, this detector delivers high sensitivity for small objects. It can distinguish closely spaced targets with precision. The coil performs well even in mineralized soil and delivers impressive depth: up to 40 cm for coin-sized targets, and up to 1.25 meters for larger objects. Naturally, the coil is also fully waterproof.

Extra tools for precision digging

The built-in pinpoint mode helps you accurately locate a target before digging, saving you time and effort. The detector also features ultra-fast recovery speed, allowing it to separate nearby objects – ideal in cluttered areas with lots of metal debris.

Versatile and reliable worldwide

This model performs consistently across all ground types, from forest soil to rocky terrain. The display is tailored to European standards and shows depth in centimeters. A top choice for international users or those working in challenging locations.

Refined iron filter and audio contrast

With the iron discrimination feature, you can easily exclude unwanted metals like nails or scrap iron. Discrimination is adjustable between 0 and 44. For advanced users, an “Iron Audio” mode provides audible separation between iron and valuable targets.

Adjustable threshold (background tone)

You can choose to search with or without a constant threshold tone. When enabled, subtle interruptions in the sound can help you detect deep or tiny objects that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Adjustable frequency to prevent interference

Operating in an area with electronic interference or other detectors? Simply switch frequencies using the built-in frequency adjuster to maintain clear, uninterrupted detection.
