Find buried metal before your drill bit does. Differentiate between ferrous metal (such as rebar) and non-ferrous metal (such as copper pipes). Map out pipes, electrical conduit, metal studs, and more.

Watch the MT 6 in action. See how an MT 6 is used.

Locate embedded metal before your drill bit or saw blade does. MetalliScanner MT 6 is the tool you need if you are sawing concrete slabs or walls that contain rebar, conduit, or plumbing. This powerful dedicated metal scanning tool can locate metal up to 6 inches (152 mm) deep in solid concrete.

MetalliScanner MT 6 locates both ferrous and non-ferrous metal up to 6 inches deep in concrete and other non-metallic surfaces. It also differentiates between ferrous and non-ferrous metal targets and indicates the target depth in inches and centimeters. Use MetalliScanner MT 6 to find or avoid rebar, cables, pipe, nails in reclaimed wood, nails/tacks in studs behind lath & plaster walls, electrical boxes and conduit, and more.

• Automatically differentiates between magnetic metal (such as rebar) and non-magnetic metal (such as copper pipe)
• Shows the depth of metal from the surface in both inches and centimeters
• Easy-to-read LCD screen pinpoints the location of metal objects, such as rebar, to the nearest inch and depth to the nearest 1/2 inch (13 mm)
• Helps map out the grid of metal through any nonmetallic construction material, including concrete, tile, and marble

Use the MT 6 to Scan for Rebar and Other Metal Objects Like Pipes, Metal Studs, and More
	The MT 6 is recommended in the protocols for the official My Safe Florida Home program. They recommend using the MT 6 for measuring subsurface nail spacing and locating rebar in masonry.

I bought this unit because we had to core drill over 100 holes in our floor and the engineer didn't want us hitting any re-bar. It also picked up a lot of "stuff" in one area and when we drilled there wasn't anything there.Over all I'd give it 3 stars, maybe if it were just a concrete slab over dirt with re-bar it would be better. The floor we had to drill through was 5" thick with a metal pan under it, so I knew it would be hard for any detector to distinguish between the metal pan and the re-bar. It seemed to get it right sometimes and other times it would miss re-bar.

You're never sure about whether or not these stud-finders will actually find them, but this one does, and it does it perfectly. Great product. It's accurate, good quality, and is easy to read with the large, detailed screen.

I have performed structural inspections on over 8,000 homes with concrete slab foundations. All Of my inspectors have used the MT-6 instrument for several years with good success and satisfaction. I have used very expensive and very inexpensive metal detectors over the years in my effort to determine how slabs are reinforced and to accurately locate the rebar. The Zircon MT-6 is the best instrument for the price that I have found to perform these tasks.

On Concrete foundation, the scanner always beep when the find any rock with iron - false reading. I do not like the product but if you must have it, make sure check the return policy. Any body guest where the rebar is. However, on CMU (Concrete Masonry Unit) it works a bit better.
