With a body made of composite materials, this Transit is a lighter, more affordable alternative. It incorporates a cast NdFeB rare-earth magnet, precisely balanced on a sapphire bearing, resulting in a powerful magnet, which quickly seeks magnetic north and permits faster readings.
Features:
Single NdFeB magnet resists demagnetization better than other types of magnets for increased reliability
Vertical angle measurements to +/- 90° or 100% grade
A percent grade scale with increments of 5%
Induction dampened needle for quick, accurate readings
Sapphire jewel bearing allows for smooth needle movement
Magnetic declination adjustment allows for east or west declination settings to +/- 180°
Short and long sights for increased accuracy when sighting azimuth or vertical angles
Precision aligned mirror with convenient "see-through" sighting capability
Composite body material has less thermal retention
Ball & socket tripod mount for increased accuracy
O-rings make the ComPro waterproof for increased reliability
