Dip Needle Complete
Dip Needle Complete is a fully assembled and calibrated magnetic dip measurement instrument used for precise determination of the Earth’s magnetic inclination angle. This complete apparatus includes a magnetized dip needle mounted on a low-friction pivot within a protective housing, accompanied by a graduated circular scale for accurate angular readings. The instrument is designed for use in geophysical surveys, educational labs, and research institutions to study Earth’s magnetic field behavior. The complete setup ensures reliable, repeatable measurements with enhanced durability and ease of use, suitable for both field and laboratory environments.
