Get Wrap Around Beta Angle Protractors For Most Common Core Sizes

Filling out the Wrap Around Beta Angle Protractors for various core sizes can enhance the accuracy of your measurements in geological applications. This guide provides clear and concise instructions for users to complete the form effectively and correctly, ensuring a smooth and efficient process.

Follow the steps to fill out the protractors accurately.

1. Click ‘Get Form’ button to obtain the protractor template and open it in an editing program.
2. Select the appropriate protractor based on the core size you are working with. Each template corresponds to a specific diameter and circumference.
3. Check the core diameter and match it with the right template, ensuring you are using either a beta angle protractor or an alpha/beta angle protractor as needed.
4. After printing, set the page scaling to NONE in the print manager to ensure the protractor maintains its dimensions.
5. Print the protractor on a suitable transparent film, preferably heavy-duty to enhance durability, using a laser printer for best results.
6. To use the protractor for beta angles, align the reference line with the central zero line, ensuring the downhole arrows point down the core.
7. Wrap the protractor around the core and read the clockwise 360° beta angles from the spaced vertical lines.
8. For alpha angles using the alpha angle protractor, align the reference line with the bottom of the ellipse you need to measure.
9. Again, wrap the protractor around the core and use the curved lines to estimate the alpha angle.
10. Finally, save your changes, and download, print, or share the filled-out protractor template as needed.
