Dividers are the most used instrument on the chart table: every distance measurement, every step along a route, every position transfer needs them. We stock a full range of brass dividers from Chartwright and Weems & Plath, in single-handed and straight-point patterns, in 6-inch, 7-inch and 8-inch sizes, including the Weems & Plath Ultralight, which doubles as a pencil compass.
Single-handed dividers let you measure and step distances without putting the instrument down. Straight-point models suit more deliberate, precise work. If you're equipping a chart table for the first time, single-handed is the practical starting point.
