Wing Compass
Product Code : EL-MAILE-10828
In the metalworking field, a divider caliper, popularly called a compass, is used in the process of marking out locations.
The points are sharpened so that they act as scribers, one leg can then be placed in the dimple created by a center or prick punch and the other leg pivoted so that it scribes a line on the work piece’s surface, thus forming an arc or circle.
The two caliper’s ends are brought to the two points whose distance is being measured.
The caliper’s opening is then either measured on a separate ruler or then converted to the actual distance, or it is measured directly on a scale drawn on the map.
A divider caliper is also used to measure a distance between two points on a map.
FEATURES:
Bearing surfaces of the legs are large enough to prevent side deflection
Bow spring is strong and flexible
Adjustment is centrally located in the legs to assure smooth action
