Large Spreading Caliper (pointed ends)

GPM Model 109    Price:  $2,399

Product Details

The GPM Large Spreading Caliper with pointed ends provides accurate measurement of the distance between two points, where one or both points may not be on a flat surface. This Large Spreading Caliper can also be used for the measurement of Anterior-Posterior chest depth.

The ends of the spreading branches are pointed and generally not comfortable for the patients, as opposed to the GPM Large Spreading Caliper model 108, which has rounded ends.

The GPM Large Spreading Caliper with rounded ends is manufactured from chrome plated steel. Hinged at the base, the two curved branches with pointed ends are connected by a pivotal ruler, which is engraved in millimeter intervals from 0 to 60 cm. The branches can be immobilized in any position by a screw located on the slider which guides the ruler. The ruler gives the precise distance between the two points over which the measurement has been taken.
