Maped - Study Compass

Study Compass

Draw precise circles up to 10 inches with comfortable control

Precise circles matter in technical drawing, and this compass delivers reliable geometry without the frustration of slipping joints or wandering points. Maped constructs the Study Compass from durable metal components that maintain alignment through repeated use, ensuring consistent arc quality whether you're drafting architectural details or constructing geometric proofs.

The ergonomically designed head fits comfortably in your hand during extended drafting sessions, providing the control needed for smooth, confident strokes. A locking universal holder secures any standard pen or pencil firmly in place, switch between graphite for construction lines and ink for final work without fighting loose grip mechanisms. The compass handles circles up to 10 inches in diameter, covering the range needed for most technical drawing and design applications.

Metal construction means this compass maintains its calibration over time rather than developing the wobble and play that plague cheaper alternatives. Students working through geometry courses and drafters creating technical illustrations both need tools that perform predictably, letting you focus on the work rather than compensating for equipment limitations.
