Protect Your Coil Cable. Customize Your Detector. Stand Out on Every Hunt!
Give your metal detector a fresh new look while adding an extra layer of protection to one of its most important components — the search coil cable!
Snake Skinz Cable Sleeves are lightweight, expandable braided protective covers designed to slip over compatible metal detector coil wires.
Whether you're hunting old coins in a park, searching for relics in the woods, or prospecting for gold in rough terrain, Snake Skinz help protect your cable from everyday rubbing, scuffs, and abrasion.
And with nine eye-catching color combinations, you can give your detector a personalized appearance that's easy to recognize at group hunts and detecting events.
Extra Coil Cable Protection: Adds a protective braided layer around your detector's search coil wire.
Cut and Abrasion Resistant: Helps reduce everyday wear from contact with detector shafts, vegetation, and other surfaces.
Lightweight Polyester Construction: Flexible material designed to move with your cable.
UV and Chemical Resistant: Built to tolerate outdoor detecting conditions.
Custom Detector Appearance: Nine distinctive colors and patterns.
Easy to Identify Your Detector: Particularly useful at club hunts, rallies, and group detecting events.
Flexible Design: Helps accommodate normal shaft adjustments and cable movement when properly installed.
Removable Accessory: Personalize your detector without permanently modifying its original cable.
Made in the USA: Manufactured using braided protective sleeving.
Your metal detector's search coil cable connects the search coil to the detector's electronics.
During regular use, the cable can experience friction from shaft movement, brush, grass, dirt, and repeated adjustments.
Snake Skinz adds a braided outer layer that helps shield the original cable jacket against routine abrasion.
This is especially useful for detectorists who frequently hunt wooded areas, overgrown homesteads, and rocky terrain.
Please note: Snake Skinz provides supplementary protection. It cannot repair a damaged cable, restore deteriorating insulation, or prevent all cuts, snags, and impacts.

Important compatibility information: Not every detector cable or connector will fit through the sleeve. Other metal detector brands and models may require a different Snake Skinz version. Always check the cable connector size and required sleeve length before ordering.
Power off your detector and disconnect the search coil cable where appropriate.
Clean and dry the existing coil cable.
Carefully expand the braided sleeve and begin feeding it over the connector and cable.
Work the sleeve along the cable in small sections rather than pulling aggressively from one end.
Double the braided material back at the ends to help prevent fraying.
Secure the ends as appropriate, ensuring the cable retains enough slack for normal coil movement and shaft adjustment.
Reconnect the coil and verify that the detector and cable move freely.
Helpful tip: Some customers report that getting the sleeve over the connector can be tight. Avoid forcing it, and check the sleeve's fit before proceeding. Watch the installation video referenced on the product packaging.

Snake Skinz Cable Sleeves for Metal Detectors
These snake skinz are very cool, the fit great, and add a splash of color to your detector that makes it easier to tell your detector from another of the same type if you are detecting with a group. They also add another layer of protection to your machine. Reach out to the crew if you have any questions, the service you get from them as well as the quality products at great prices will keep you coming back for more!!
The insulation was literally falling off of my coil wire so this looked like a good fix for it. Shipping was fast, but, it's impossible to get the snake skin over the connector and it's way too short. It's only 4 feet long, my coil wire is 7 feet long.Disappointed.
Looks great . Very tight getting over cable end on my nox 800 once on end I started with started to fray because of how hard it was to get over cable end in beginning of installation but looks great and should protect cable also
