The Jamar Hydraulic Handgrip Dynamometer is a tried and proven handgrip strength device that accurately and reliably measures maximal isometric handgrip strength as an important component of a clinical evaluation as an indicator of overall strength and general health, and as a predictor of accelerated decline and dependency in functional activities of daily living (ADL) in aging.
The Jamar hand dynamometer was used to develop the original normative handgrip strength data, combining digital load sensor technology with high-quality hydraulics for accurate and reliable measurements over years of service.
