Product Code : SCL-PLE-10613
The compass Ø 55 mm is a magnetic direction-finding instrument used for school physics experiments, magnetism demonstrations, field-direction studies, and STEM classroom activities. It is suitable for students, teachers, physics laboratories, geography lessons, and science kits where a clear 55 mm compass is required for observing magnetic north.
Product Description
The Compass Ø 55 mm helps students observe how a magnetized needle aligns with Earth’s magnetic field. It is used to identify cardinal directions, study magnetic poles, locate magnetic field direction, and demonstrate how nearby magnets or current-carrying conductors affect a compass needle.
The 55 mm diameter gives a practical classroom size for group demonstrations and student table work. Final case material, dial type, graduation details, needle locking mechanism, glass or plastic cover, and accuracy tolerance should be confirmed from the supplied product datasheet before catalogue publication or tender submission.
Key Features
- 55 mm diameter compass for school laboratory and STEM activities.

How to Use the Compass Ø 55 mm
- Place the compass on a flat, level, non-magnetic surface.
- Keep it away from magnets, steel objects, electric motors, and live current-carrying wires unless these are part of the experiment.
- Allow the needle to settle before taking a reading.
- Rotate the compass body until the dial aligns with the needle direction.
- Read north, south, east, west, or the bearing value if the dial includes degree markings.
- Move a magnet near the compass and observe needle deflection during magnetism demonstrations.
- Return the compass to its storage box after use.
Safety note: Do not use the compass near strong magnets, pacemakers, magnetic cards, watches, or sensitive electronic devices. Keep the compass dry and avoid impact on the needle pivot.
Care & Maintenance
- Store the compass in a dry cabinet away from strong magnets.
- Clean the cover gently with a soft dry cloth.
- Do not drop, shake, heat, or open the compass casing.
- Replace the compass if the needle sticks, reverses, or fails to settle properly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Compass Ø 55 mm used for?
Compass Ø 55 mm is used for direction finding, magnetic-field observation, polarity demonstrations, and school physics experiments on magnetism.
Is this compass suitable for school students?
Yes. It is suitable for supervised school use in physics, geography, STEM, and general science practical lessons.
What does Ø 55 mm mean?
Ø 55 mm means the compass has an approximate circular diameter of 55 mm. Confirm the final size tolerance from the datasheet.
Can it be used with magnets?
Yes. It can be used with magnets to show needle deflection and field direction, but strong magnets should not be stored directly against the compass.
Does the compass show degree markings?
Degree markings are not confirmed. Check the final product image or datasheet before claiming a graduated 0–360° dial.
What should be confirmed before ordering?
Confirm diameter, case material, cover type, dial marking, needle movement, packing quantity, and any supplied documentation before bulk procurement.
