Product Review

A pocket sized tools with slot scales for 1:24,000, 1:25,000, and 1:50,000 scale maps. The 1:24k and 1:25k scales allow you to divide a 1km map grid with 10m precision. The 1:50k scale allows you to divide a 1km map grid with 20m precision.

The tool also has a protractor marked in degrees along its outside edge. This makes plotting or measuring a bearing a snap.

The small size of this tool will allow you to keep it handy in your pocket. A band of white ink around the edge of the tool makes reading the compass rose easier and also keeps the tool from "disappearing" when you place it on the map. There is also a lanyard hole in the upper left corner.

Printed on 30 mil plastic stock the tools are about the thickness of a credit card. The ink is coated to protect it from abrasion. Size 2.75" x 2.75"(7cm X 7cm).

Internal cutouts are shown with a red outline in some product images. The map image in the background of some product images is present so that any white ink is visible. Neither the red outlines nor the map image are printed on the tool.
