Combine quick adjustment with fine control using the Pacific Arc PQA-610CEX 6" Rapid Bow Compass.
The rapid-adjustment design allows the compass opening to be changed quickly by pulling the legs into position, while the center wheel provides fine adjustment when greater precision is needed. Double-break legs provide additional positioning flexibility for drafting and technical drawing.
For larger circles, the included extension bar expands the compass's capacity to circles up to 22" in diameter.
The set also includes a universal adapter, additional lead, adjustment wheels, and a clear plastic storage case, providing a versatile compass setup for architecture, engineering, geometry, drafting, and other precision drawing applications.

Rapid Adjustment + Fine Control
Unlike a traditional compass that requires the adjustment mechanism to be worked through the entire range, the Rapid Bow Compass can be opened or closed quickly by pulling the legs into position.
Once you're close to the desired measurement, the center wheel allows finer adjustment. This combination makes it convenient when frequently changing between circle sizes while still providing the control needed for precision drafting.
Extended Circle Capacity
The included extension bar increases the compass's reach for circles up to 22" in diameter, giving the PQA-610CEX considerably more versatility for larger layouts and technical drawings.
The included universal adapter further expands the usefulness of the compass by allowing compatible drawing instruments to be used in place of the standard lead.
