We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Rex, Schonstedt’s newest pipe & cable locator aimed at locating all underground utilities. Rex is a multi-frequency locator with the price tag of a single-frequency locator. The transmitter is less than 2 inches thick and weighs less than 4 pounds.

Schonstedt is permanently halting the sale of the first-generation GA-92XTd and Maggie magnetic locators that were supplied with analog control knobs.

This improves their reliability by removing the risk of water and dust ingress into the product electronics.               Service (Update: November 2024) Effective January 1, 2025, we will no longer offer repair services for the older models.…

Reports from the field are in, and users of the new Maggie—especially surveyors—are loving this new pistol-grip locator! Maggie combines the best features of two flagship Schonstedt products: the sensitivity and precision of the GA-52Cx, and the single-handed operation of the GA-92XT. Also getting rave reviews is Maggie the Mascot, our canine companion trained to sniff out underground ferrous metals! Learn more about Maggie here!

Schonstedt will cease taking orders for Tracemaster II locators on March 31, 2015. The 3-year warranty will be honored and we will provide repair service and parts beyond the warranty period as supplies last. The new Rex replaces the Tracemaster II product line. Find out more about this exciting new product here. Update (March 2018) – Due to obsolescent parts from electronic component suppliers and manufacturers, Schonstedt has discontinued repair services and parts availability for the TraceMaster and TraceMaster II.
