Ranging Rod Metal
Product Code : JA-MLK-1929
The Ranging Rod Metal (SKU JA-MLK-1929) is a surveying rod made of 25 mm diameter steel conduit pipe, painted alternately in international orange and white so it stands out at a distance. A strong iron shoe at the bottom lets it be pushed firmly into the ground. It is offered in four versions: 2 m single, 3 m single, 2 m two-fold and 3 m three-fold. Pupils use ranging rods to mark stations and range straight lines in field surveys. JaincoLab makes these ranging rods for school and college maths and geography practicals.
