Artline Examate Mechanical Pencil Compass

A self-centering compass paired with a mechanical pencil, built for accurate schoolwork geometry.

• Combines a compass and a mechanical pencil in one instrument
• Self-centering mechanism designed to help keep circles and arcs accurate
• ABS knob for a firmer, more comfortable grip while drawing
• Rust-proof solid needle point for a stable pivot
• Polished metal body finished for corrosion resistance
• Part of Artline's Examate range of exam and geometry-box instruments

Circles, arcs and angle work come up constantly in school maths and geometry classes, and this Examate compass is built specifically for that job. The self-centering action and firm-grip ABS knob help students draw cleaner curves with less slipping partway through a circle, which matters most during timed classwork and exams when there is no time to redo a diagram. Because the mechanical pencil is built into the compass arm, there is one less loose part to lose track of inside a pencil box.

The rust-proof needle and corrosion-resistant polished metal body are meant to hold up through repeated use over a full academic year, not just a single term. It is a practical, exam-ready addition to any student's geometry kit, useful for maths class, technical drawing, and any homework that calls for accurate circles and arcs.

Because the compass and mechanical pencil are built as one instrument, it also takes up less room in a pencil case than carrying a separate compass and pencil, which is a small but useful thing during an exam when desk space is tight. It is sold under Artline's Examate line alongside other compass and mathematical instrument box products aimed at the same school and exam use case.
