Brunton 5010 Geo Transit 360° Azimuth Compass

Description

The Brunton 5010 Geo Transit 360° Azimuth Compass is engineered for geologists and geophysicists who require maximum precision and efficiency in structural data collection. Its articulated hinge dial enables the simultaneous measurement of strike and dip or dip and dip direction, significantly optimizing workflow in the field. Equipped with a high-precision clinometer, flat base for low-angle measurements, and an integrated mirror for exact alignment, it delivers reliable performance in demanding conditions. An automatic needle lock ensures stable readings, while its rugged, compact construction—manufactured in the USA—combines durability, advanced functionality, and professional-grade accuracy.
