## Long description

HERLITZ metal compass with a maximum span of 17 cm designed for precise circle drawing and measurement in school and technical environments. The compass is built from metal to provide stable performance and durability. It accepts standard pencil or drafting leads and features an adjustable hinge and screw mechanism for controlled setting of radii and arcs.
Advantages
The metal construction ensures rigidity and long-term stability during repeated use, reducing play in the joint for more accurate circles. The fine adjustment screw provides incremental control of the radius, making it easier to reproduce specific dimensions. The design accommodates common pencil leads without additional adapters and is compact enough to carry in a pencil case or toolkit.
Suitable for
School geometry lessons and exercises
Technical drawing and drafting tasks
Art and craft projects that require accurate circles or arcs
Model making and hobbyist layout work
Key specifications
Material: metal body for improved rigidity
Maximum span (radius reach): up to 17 cm
Lead type: accepts standard pencil or drafting leads
Adjustment: fine screw mechanism for controlled radius setting
Design: hinged leg with pointed needle for stable center positioning
Portability: compact size suitable for pencil cases and toolkits
How to use
Insert a standard pencil lead into the clamp and tighten securely. Place the pointed needle at the chosen center point, then open the legs to the required radius using the hinge and fine adjustment screw to set the exact distance. Rotate the compass smoothly around the center point to draw circles or arcs. For measurement tasks, align the legs with the points to be measured and read the span visually or transfer it to a ruler.
Usage recommendations
For consistent accuracy, check the tightness of the screw and the pencil clamp before use. Replace or trim the pencil lead to a sharp, even point for cleaner lines. Store the compass in a protective case or compartment to avoid bending the needle or damaging the adjustment mechanism.
