A mechanical pinch gauge is a tool used to measure the strength of the pinch grip. It has two handles that are squeezed together, and a dial that displays the amount of force being applied. Pinch gauges are used by physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other healthcare professionals to assess muscle strength and function. They are also used by athletes and other people who want to track their progress over time.
