Handy metal compass with push-button adjustment for quick and precise setting. The folding leg allows large circles up to 350 mm, ideal for technical drawing in the office or at school.
When do you choose this product?
What does this product do, and when do you need it?
A compass is used when you want to draw accurate circles or arcs, for example in technical drawings, architectural sketches or mathematical exercises. The STAEDTLER NORIX 555 is a metal quick-set compass, which means it is designed for situations where you want to set the radius quickly and precisely without lengthy screwing.
Why this variant is the right choice
This compass combines push-button operation with a centre-drive spindle. This means you can quickly set the legs to the desired width using the push button, after which you use the spindle to lock the setting finely and securely. That makes it suitable both for fast-changing work and for situations where precision matters. The legs are also hinged, which is handy when drawing larger circles at a steep angle.
An honest note on the maximum size
The maximum circle diameter is approximately 350 mm. This is a generous size that suits most standard drawing formats, but please keep in mind that this is the upper limit. For circles exceeding this size you will need an extension bar or a different compass, neither of which is included.
Practical tip on use and storage
The compass is supplied with a black pencil lead, so you can get started straight away. It is stored in a folding case with a hanging eye, which is useful for storage in a pencil case or on a hook. The length of the instrument is 170 mm, which fits within a standard pencil case for technical drawing equipment. When in use, check that you insert the correct pencil lead thickness for your type of paper.
