Coiltek Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 Hey Phrunt. The hole for the pressure vent is on the base and will be hidden by the skid plate when fitted. If you remove the skid and look around the perimeter of the base you will see a 1mm hole - this is the vent. On the inside of the base we place a small pad which is IP rated for dust and water ingress and allows air to pass through - its the same pad as what Minelab use on their GPX6000 coils. If you do tape on the coil it should pose too much of an issue as most tapes are porous to a degree. if you are in doubt though you can make a small cut in the tape close to where the vent hole is to assist.

Popular Post Nedkelly Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 A few more species for the 6000 and 9"goldhawk. Most were between 4" and 6" in the ground and gave good solid signals. The biggest one about 1 foot, and gave a weird, wobbly, signal. Wasn't very confident thinking it was trash but dug it just to be sure. The 9" round is perfect for where I detect in knee to waist high grass,brush,sticks, rocks,and trash. In very hot red ground still has good depth and sensitivity while running reasonably smooth and quiet. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post phrunt Posted March 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 7, 2023 I like this post by Coiltek on Facebook, and figured I'd put it here for those that don't use Facebook, it's really nice to see the team behind the coils. Here is their post: Something you may not know is that we're an independent family-owned business – and all our products are produced and quality checked by our dedicated close-knit team in South Australia. So while we have a valued collaborative relationship with detector manufacturers, we are 100% independent and committed to bringing you the performance and quality you've come to expect from Coiltek. Trevor is a good boss, hiding up the back there not wanting to steal the limelight ? You can tell the good sellers, the Nox and 6000 coils! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff McClendon Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Very impressed with my GPX 6000 Coiltek Goldhawk coil. It is doing very well here in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norvic Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Same downunder here. I am happy as with the Goldhawk I have, consider it has more depth and sensitivity whilst being quieter than the OEM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
