🧠 How It Works

1

Hexadecimal Code

&#x293E; uses the Unicode hexadecimal value 293E to display the arrow. The x prefix indicates hexadecimal format.

HTML markup
2

Decimal HTML Code

&#10558; uses the decimal Unicode value 10558 to display the same character. This is one of the most commonly used methods.

HTML markup
3

CSS Entity

\293E is used in CSS stylesheets, particularly in the content property of pseudo-elements like ::before and ::after.

Same visual result

All three methods produce the glyph: ⤾. Unicode U+293E sits in Supplemental Arrows-B. The anticlockwise counterpart is U+293F (⤿). There is no named HTML entity.

✅

Use Cases

The Lower Right Semicircular Clockwise Arrow (⤾) is commonly used in:

🔄 Rotation & direction

Indicate clockwise rotation in controls, dials, sliders, or instructions.

🧭 Navigation

Show curved or turn directions in maps, wayfinding UI, and navigation elements.

📐 Math & physics

Denote curved trajectories, clockwise rotation, or transformations in diagrams.

📊 Flowcharts

Represent loops, forward flow, or clockwise progression in flowcharts and process diagrams.

↪ Redo & forward

Suggest redo, forward, or go-ahead actions in toolbars and buttons.

🎨 Design & typography

Use as a decorative or functional arrow in graphic design and typographic layouts.

⚙ Settings & controls

Mark increase, fast-forward, or clockwise options in sliders, knobs, and controls.

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Pair ⤾ with text or aria-label (e.g. “Clockwise”) for accessibility
  • Use numeric references (&#x293E; or &#10558;) consistently in HTML
  • Use U+293F (⤿) when you need the anticlockwise counterpart instead
  • Verify Supplemental Arrows-B glyph support in your target fonts
  • Use \293E in CSS content when inserting via pseudo-elements

Don’t

  • Confuse ⤾ (clockwise) with ⤿ (anticlockwise U+293F)
  • Put CSS escape \293E in HTML text nodes
  • Expect a named HTML entity—only numeric codes work for ⤾
  • Use the arrow alone when direction is critical—add explanatory text
  • Mix entity styles randomly in one file

Key Takeaways

1

Three references render ⤾ (no named entity)

&#x293E; &#10558;
2

For CSS stylesheets, use the escape in the content property

\293E
