Safe-T Compass (Product Code: SLE/ME/34) is a plastic drawing compass without a sharp point, used to draw circles and arcs safely in primary and secondary school maths and science classes. It is brightly coloured and shatterproof, draws circles from 1/4 to 10 in diameter, has edges ruled in inches and millimetres, and leaves desks unscratched, making it a common choice for mathematics lab kits. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Students use it for every circle-based task in the syllabus: drawing circles of a set radius, bisecting lines and angles, constructing triangles and hexagons, and drawing pie charts and Venn diagrams. Science classes use it for orbit diagrams, lens and mirror constructions and labelled cell outlines. Because there is no steel spike, younger pupils can use it without the risk of pricked fingers or damaged desks.
Hold the centre steady with one hand and draw slowly with the other for a smooth, closed circle. The ruled edges double as a short ruler, so the radius can be checked or a straight line added to the same construction without reaching for another instrument. Keep the compass away from heat, which can warp plastic.

What size circles can the Safe-T Compass draw?
The Safe-T Compass (SLE/ME/34) draws circles from 1/4 in up to 10 in in diameter. That range covers small construction arcs as well as large circles for pie charts, Venn diagrams and classroom posters.
Why does the Safe-T Compass have no point?
The Safe-T Compass has no sharp point, so there is no metal spike to prick young hands, and desks remain unscratched. That makes it suitable for younger classes and for schools that restrict pointed instruments in the classroom.
Will the Safe-T Compass break if dropped?
The Safe-T Compass is made of brightly coloured, shatterproof plastic, so it stands up to being dropped and carried in pencil cases. Keep it away from heat, which can warp plastic and affect the accuracy of the circles drawn.
Can the Safe-T Compass be used as a ruler?
Yes. The edges of the Safe-T Compass are ruled in inches and millimetres, so students can measure a radius or draw a straight line without picking up a separate ruler during a geometry construction.
What colours does the Safe-T Compass come in?
The Safe-T Compass is described as brightly coloured; the specific colours and any colour mix per order are not listed here. If colour matters for your classroom, mention it in your enquiry through the contact page.
