The Saehan Hydraulic Pinch Gauge is a precision-engineered hand assessment instrument designed for the accurate measurement of pinch strength in clinical, rehabilitation and occupational health settings. Recognised internationally for its reliability and consistency, the device is commonly used by physiotherapists, occupational therapists, hand therapists and rehabilitation professionals to evaluate hand function, monitor patient progress and support treatment planning.
The gauge is suitable for performing the three primary pinch strength assessments: tip pinch, key pinch and palmar pinch. These standardised testing protocols help clinicians objectively assess hand and finger strength in patients recovering from injury, surgery, neurological conditions or musculoskeletal disorders.
Featuring a hydraulic measurement system, the gauge provides smooth and accurate force readings up to 20 kg (45 lbs). The large dual-scale dial displays both kilograms and pounds, allowing quick interpretation of results across different clinical environments. A peak hold needle automatically captures and retains the maximum force generated during testing until manually reset, ensuring accurate recording of patient performance.
Designed for professional use, the Saehan Hydraulic Pinch Gauge offers durable construction, dependable measurement accuracy and ease of use, making it an essential tool for hand therapy, rehabilitation and functional capacity assessments.
