The Jamar Hydraulic Pinch Gauge presents a simple and reliable way to assess finger strength and pinching strength. By pinching the silver tab, one can view an instantaneous reading of PSI on its gauge needle. This gauge retains the maximum pressure when read, enabling a swift and effortless analysis. Pinch force is displayed on a two-scale system, in both pounds and kilograms, with a maximum reading capacity of 45 lbs. or 22.5 kg. Carefully designed to be held by a therapist, the weight of the gauge is not a burden to the patient being tested.
