The Schonstedt 5" Inductive Signal Clamp (Model Number: TM60001) is an essential accessory for locating underground pipes and cables. When clamped around a pipe or cable at a point where it comes up to the surface—such as a transformer box, telephone switch box, or gas meter—it induces a current that can be traced using compatible Schonstedt locators. This tool is particularly useful for accurately pinpointing the location of pipes and cables in environments where the lines are not easily visible.
The Inductive Signal Clamp works with the following Schonstedt instruments:
- REX Pipe and Cable Locator
-
TraceMaster II (TMS-001-AF) (Discontinued)
-
TraceMaster II (TMS-001-MF) (Discontinued)
Features:
- Ideal for inducing current for tracing purposes on pipes or cables
- 5-inch clamp size to fit around most standard-sized pipes or cables
- Designed for use with Schonstedt REX and TraceMaster II locators
- Durable construction for long-lasting performance
Specifications:
- Clamp size: 5 inches
