Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector
The Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector provides reliable scanning for objects hidden behind walls, floors and ceilings. Bosch radar technology helps users locate metal, cables and pipes quickly while reducing the risk of accidental drilling damage. Clear signals guide the user to the correct location and help improve accuracy when working on building surfaces.
Tradespeople often work in areas where hidden services are present. Because of this, the Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector helps identify live cables, magnetic metals and non-magnetic metals before drilling or cutting. The device also detects wooden substructures and water filled plastic pipes, making it useful across many installation tasks.
Reliable Radar Detection
Bosch radar technology allows the tool to scan through different wall materials including concrete and drywall. As a result, the Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector can detect objects up to 120 mm deep depending on the material type. The centre finder function also helps identify the precise middle point of a detected object for accurate marking.
Designed for Professional Work
Ease of use is important on busy job sites. Therefore, the Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector uses a simple interface with three selection buttons for quick adjustments. Spot measurement mode improves detection on narrow areas and helps deliver reliable results on smaller surfaces.
Audio and visual alerts notify the user when objects are detected in the wall. In addition, dual power technology allows the Bosch D-Tect 120 Professional Detector to operate using a 12 V Li-ion battery or standard alkaline AA batteries. This flexibility ensures the tool remains ready for use on site when needed.
