longbow62 Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 The Manticore is my last new detector for the foreseeable future. I plan on getting the small coil for it when it becomes available, then that's it I'm done. Its going to take a major leap for me to even consider another detector.

The diameter is smaller than what was used on the Nox. I don't know what the thickness is but I could measure it and get back. I was saying "some" may think that so maybe the surf guys? I'm careful not to lean on it...I guess we will have to see how it does with the large beach coil. strick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveg Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Interesting, strick. Thanks. Yes, I'd be curious to know the wall thickness...OR, if not a direct measurement of the wall, the O.D. measurement minus the I.D. measurement divided by 2 gives the wall thickness too, of course.

Steve Steve, the OD of the lower shaft on the 900 and Manticore is 17.5mm...the ID is 15.5mm, which seems like a strange size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveg Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Dan, Yes -- a bit of an "odd" size, BUT -- the wall thickness is then 1mm (based on your measurements, THANKS)! This (the wall thickness) is pretty standard, though the tube size is a bit odd... Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick N. MI Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 0.69" od. Was that measured on the lower shaft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
