The Professional Military Lensatic Compass tracks magnetic north using a liquid-filled damping mechanism. A sighting hairline and magnifying lens align the user with distant landmarks for precise navigation. This hardware maintains orientation during heavy rain or night operations.
Key Features
- Liquid-filled Mechanism: Damping fluid stabilizes the internal needle quickly. Stops needle oscillation for immediate azimuth readings.
- Luminous Floating Dial: Phosphorescent markings on the compass face. Shows direction clearly in low-light environments without external light.
- Sighting Hairline: Thin vertical wire integrated into the protective cover. Matches the map azimuth to physical terrain features.
- Rugged Metal Case: Foldable housing with an integrated thumb hold. Protects the glass lens from impact and debris.
- 1:50000 Scale: Printed ruler calibrated for standard topographic maps. Calculates ground distance directly from map coordinates.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to use a lensatic compass?
Align the sighting hairline with a distant object while looking through the magnifying lens. Read the degree marking under the fixed black index line to determine the bearing.
Is a liquid filled compass better?
Liquid-filled chambers dampen needle movement to prevent excessive shaking. This stabilization provides faster and more accurate readings while walking.
