At Drotek, we’ve always been passionate about making metal detecting accessible to everyone. Our previous detectors were designed with beginners in mind—perfect for those just starting their treasure-hunting journey. But as our community grew, we noticed something: many of you were outgrowing your beginner detectors. You needed something more—something that could keep up with your skills and ambitions.
That’s why we created the MT12—a metal detector designed to bridge the gap between hobbyists and professionals.

What Makes the MT12 Different?
We’ve felt your frustration when false signals interrupted your search in mineralized soil or wet sand. We’ve seen your disappointment when your detector missed smaller, precious targets because it just couldn’t keep up. We know how much you’ve grown—from curious beginners to skilled treasure hunters—and we wanted to create something that could grow with you.
That’s why we designed the MT12—a detector that’s more than just an upgrade. It’s a leap forward, built to match your skills and ambitions. No more false signals, no more missed targets, no more limitations. This is the detector you’ve been waiting for. Precision, stability, and performance—all in one.
Exclusive Ground Balance Function
With the ground balance function, the MT12 takes on mineralized soil, wet sand, and rocky terrain with ease, reducing interference by 50% and ensuring stable performance even in the most challenging conditions. Say goodbye to frustrating false signals and hello to uninterrupted treasure hunting.

0-99 Adjustable Sensitivity Levels
For those who chase the smallest, most valuable finds, the 0-99 adjustable sensitivity levels give you ultimate control, ensuring that no hidden coin, relic, or piece of jewelry goes undetected.

Five Professional Detection Modes
And with five professional detection modes—All-Metal, DISC, Notch, Beach, and Pinpoint—the MT12 adapts seamlessly to any environment, from dry land to shallow waters.
Built for both reach and accuracy, the 12” waterproof Double-D coil extends detection depth up to 10 inches, covering 20% more ground than standard coils—perfect for beach, river, or park explorations. Meanwhile, the 9-level volume and backlight settings make sure you never miss an alert, whether it’s broad daylight or an evening hunt.
And because we know every second in the field counts, the fully adjustable, rapid-locking shaft cuts setup time by 40%, making it effortless to start your hunt. Plus, we’ve packed the MT12 with premium accessories—a set of headphones, a heavy-duty digger shovel, and a multipurpose carrying bag—so you’re ready to uncover treasures right out of the box.
We designed the MT12 to be more than just a metal detector—we want it to be your next step in the journey. Whether you're a hobbyist or a pro, the MT12 is built to be your trusted companion, making your treasure-hunting adventure smoother, more exciting, and filled with more incredible discoveries. At Drotek, we’ve always believed that every treasure hunter deserves a detector that keeps up with their passion, and that’s exactly what inspired the creation of the MT12.


Built with Treasure Hunters, for Treasure Hunters
The MT12 wasn’t created in isolation—it was shaped by real treasure hunters like you. During our testing phase, we sent prototype units to some of our longtime friends in the detecting community. Their invaluable feedback helped us refine the MT12, improving its performance, comfort, and durability.
Before launching the final version, we sent them the upgraded MT12, incorporating their suggestions as a token of our appreciation. Their response? Pure excitement:
“The MT12 is a game-changer! The new handle is more solid, and the battery placement is perfect. The bigger coil connector and sleeker control box make it a joy to use.”“I was blown away by how sensitive it is—it picked up tiny tinfoil and lead fragments with ease. Can’t wait to see what else it can find!”“After hours of use, it’s still comfortable to swing, with minimal twist or movement. This detector is built for long adventures.”“The MT12 works well with many aftermarket coils. In tests, it has been shown to be able to reach depths of up to 20 inches in air, while also maintaining stability and ground balance!”

Their experiences confirm what we set out to achieve—but more importantly, they remind us why we do this. Special thanks to our users—not just the friends who helped us test, but every Drotek enthusiast who shares their treasure-hunting journey with us. Your discoveries, your challenges, and your encouragement have all played a part in shaping the MT12. This detector is built with you, and for you, we continue to push forward, creating even better tools for the adventure ahead.
