Laboratory Magnetic Compass – Direction & Science Compass

The Laboratory Magnetic Compass is a compact scientific instrument designed to indicate direction relative to Earth's magnetic field. It contains a freely rotating magnetized needle or pointer that aligns approximately with the north-south magnetic direction. The compass is suitable for physics experiments, magnetism demonstrations, direction-finding exercises, map work and educational science activities. Laboratory plotting compasses commonly display the principal cardinal directions—North, South, East and West—and can be used to demonstrate magnetic orientation. Its simple, portable design makes it useful in schools, universities, science laboratories and field demonstrations.
