The caliper features a large, easy-to-read scale that extends to 67 mm, along with floating tips intended to help provide accurate and reproducible results.
Built from lightweight aluminum, this compact instrument is easy to carry between exam rooms and fits comfortably in a pocket. It measures 3 inches long and weighs less than a pound, making it practical for routine clinical use. The caliper includes a protective carrying case and a fully illustrated instruction manual with body fat conversion tables for adults and children.
