Schonstedt's underground magnetic locators have been setting the standards for reliability and dependability for over 50 years. The are designed to withstand the rigors of daily on-site usage and a wide range of environmental conditions.
The Schonstedt level of sensitivity allows you to find what you’re looking for quickly, without the risk of passing over your target.
Easy-To-Use
The GA-72Cd Locator detects the magnetic field of iron and steel objects. It provides audio detection signals that peak in frequency when the locator’s tip is held directly over the target. The Schonstedt GA-72Cd Magnetic Locator has the option of nulling or peaking.
Only two Controls! Designed for one-hand operations, the On/Off-Sensitivity and Volume controls are located on the underside of the cover. This provides easy access, protects the knobs and contributes to their overall ruggedness and dependability.
