Title: AT8149 clip and metal detectors
Post by: JoshMoores03 on July 09, 2025, 07:00:14 AM

I'm going to be taping a gig in a few weeks which will have heavy security and I itend to collar mount a pair of SP CMC 2"s with a pair of AT8149 clips already hidden in my collar to save set up time, does anyone have experience of getting through metal detectors with these clips or know what material there made of.
Any advice is much appreciated and please PM me if not appropiate for general discussion

Do you have a picture of these clips?

I'm pretty sure your phone has more metal than those clips, so you'll be fine.

This is how big they are in relation to my door keys which are pretty small

The part with the alligator clip is made of metal and it looks like the swivel part is plastic (or metal too, I can't tell), but regardless if you keep them in your pocket it wouldn't go off.
