The KB-14 hand-bearing compass is an excellent tool for foresters, surveyors and geologists, and others. Features: Designed to combine extreme accuracy with ease and speed of operation Flat, compact housing has no protruding or adjustable parts and is designed for heavy duty wear Weighs only 115 g Suunto bearing compasses are designed to combine extreme accuracy with ease and speed of operation. The accuracy is 1/3 degree, graduation 1/2 degree and the compass weighs only 115 g. The flat, compact housing has no protruding or adjustable parts and are designed to stand up to heavy-duty wear. The compasses are water resistant. The cards of these compasses are immersed in a special dampening fluid that ensures vibrationless, smooth movement. They are pivoted on polished sapphire tips. The veering assembly is to all intents and purposes subject to no wear and the liquid remains clear and its viscosity low under all conditions. The compasses have been given permanent anti-static treatment. The lens apertures of the KB-14 are restricted horizontally by a column, which automatically centers the eye on the optical axis, thus eliminating parallax.
