Drafting Compass black filled icon

About the Drafting Compass black filled icon

This icon shows a drafting compass standing upright: a short handle rises from a circular hinge, and two straight legs splay outward to sharp points, crossed midway by a long horizontal ruler bar. Together they signal technical drawing, measurement, precision and planning. Use it on architecture and interior design sites, engineering service pages, CAD and vector tool interfaces, geometry lessons and math apps, and portfolio sections about the design process.

The solid ring at the top anchors the symmetrical A-shaped legs, and the ruler crossing near the midpoint adds a second axis that keeps the mark from reading as a simple letter A. Pair it with pencil, ruler and blueprint icons for a toolkit row. The fine leg tips benefit from 32 px or larger; use the filled style for small buttons.

This is the solid black filled version of the drafting compass icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
