Featuring a built-in compass rose and printed on abrasion-resistant plastic, it divides 1km grid squares into 100m increments with 50m precision dots. Sized like a credit card for ultimate portability, it comes with free digital resources to enhance your map-reading skills—perfect for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts who demand accuracy and reliability. ## Description 1:24,000 Scale "Pocket Sized" U Grid Overlays Fast and easy U plotting These easy to use grid tools divide a 1 kilometer grid square into 100 meter squares. Align the tool on the map grid and read off the easting and northing values. The tools also have a compass rose along their outside edge. This makes plotting or measuring a bearing a snap. The small size of these tools will allow you to keep them handy in your pocket. A band of white ink around the edge makes reading the compass rose and grid numbers easier and also keeps the tool from "disappearing" when you place it on the map. In the center of each 100m square a small dot, makes it easy to read the coordinate with a 50m precision. There is a lanyard hole in the upper left corner. Printed on 30 mil plastic stock the tools are about the thickness of a credit card. The ink is coated to protect it from abrasion. Size 2.75" x 2.75" (7cm X 7cm). Review: I've used Map Tools products for many years. There are simply no better tools out there for accurately navigating using a map. The scales are always dead on, the type is easy to read, and they are durable! Along with your order John will include a number of free items, scale calculators, topo map information, and a nifty card printed on waterproof paper with the declination and other data for your zip code. All free and all very useful. It's a pleasure to purchase from a company that is so obviously invested in customer success. Knowing how to use a map and compass is an essential skill, and no one should venture into wilderness areas without a paper map back-up to your phone or GPS device. With Map Tools products using the map is easy, accurate, and fun, and it just might save your life.
