Drafting Compass black outline icon

About the Drafting Compass black outline icon

Two straight legs open wide from a circular ring hinge topped by a short stem, with a horizontal crossbar and adjustment mark holding the span. The tool stands for precision, geometry and technical drawing. Use it in CAD and drafting software toolbars, architecture and engineering service pages, math and geometry lesson materials, design-agency branding, and stationery or art-supply product listings.

The wide leg spread forms a tall, stable A shape that reads clearly even in a narrow column, and the open ring at the top gives the silhouette a distinctive anchor. It pairs with ruler, set square and pencil icons for a complete drafting set. Keep strokes at one weight and size it 24px or larger so the crossbar does not merge with the legs.

This is the black outline version of the drafting compass icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.

It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
