Keep your coil light, clean, and performing at its best.
The Sludge Buddies Universal Core Series Coil Cover is designed for real field conditions — sticky clay, heavy mud, ploughed land and wet winter fields.
Tested on Suffolk and Essex farmland, this cover prevents mud from clinging to your coil and weighing your detector down, helping you maintain a smooth, efficient sweep in difficult conditions.
Features:
• Universal fit for most 11” round & elliptical coils
• Mud-resistant outer fabric to reduce build-up
• Elasticated edge for a secure, easy-on fit
• Lightweight design — approx. 32g fitted
• Field-tested in genuine UK conditions
• Handmade in small batches (UK)
Designed for:
✔ Sticky clay
✔ Ploughed land
✔ Wet pasture
✔ Winter detecting conditions
⚠️ Usage note:
Sludge Buddies coil cover is designed to minimise mud build-up, not as an impact or abrasion shield.
Prolonged use in heavy stubble, thick undergrowth, or very stony ground may accelerate wear — especially if the coil is scraped along the surface rather than swept.
A controlled sweep will significantly extend the life of the cover.
Why detectorists love it:
Without a cover, coils quickly load up with mud, turning your detector into dead weight.
Sludge Buddies stops that — keeping your machine lighter, your swing smoother, and your focus on the signals that matter.
Perfect for weekend digs, rallies, and winter hunting.
