The spring-loaded Gulick attachment exerts a constant, calibrated tension on the woven fabric tape, eliminating the variability that comes from hand-held tension and ensuring consistent readings across multiple measurements and clinicians. The tape is calibrated in both inches and centimeters, and the push-button retractor and protective plastic housing make it easy to extend, read, and retract cleanly between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring-loaded Gulick attachment — exerts constant, calibrated tension for accurate and repeatable measurements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60\" woven fabric tape — calibrated in both inches and centimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-button retractor for quick, clean tape retraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtective plastic housing — keeps tape clean and protected between uses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates measurement variability caused by inconsistent hand tension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for limb girth, circumference, and edema measurements in clinical settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 121201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 714905015105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Baseline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape Length: 60\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape Material: Woven fabric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalibration: Inches and centimeters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttachment: Spring-loaded Gulick constant-tension mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetractor: Push-button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousing: Protective plastic casing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Baseline Gulick Measurement Tape is well suited for physical therapists who require standardized limb girth measurements for baseline assessments and progress tracking over the course of a treatment plan. Athletic trainers and sports medicine clinicians will find it essential for monitoring swelling and edema in injured athletes where consistent, comparable readings are critical. Occupational therapists and rehabilitation clinicians performing routine circumference assessments for lymphedema management or post-surgical monitoring benefit from the constant-tension Gulick mechanism that removes clinician-to-clinician variability. It is also appropriate for research settings and clinical documentation protocols that require standardized measurement methodology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a Gulick attachment and why does it matter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Gulick attachment is a spring-loaded mechanism that applies a consistent, predetermined amount of tension to the tape during measurement. Without it, the tension applied by hand varies between measurements and between clinicians, introducing error into circumference readings. The Gulick attachment standardizes the tension so that measurements taken at different times or by different clinicians are directly comparable — which is essential for tracking edema, limb atrophy, or hypertrophy over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this tape used to measure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Baseline Gulick tape is primarily used to measure limb circumference — including the upper arm, forearm, thigh, calf, and ankle — for clinical assessments of edema, lymphedema, muscle atrophy, and hypertrophy. It is also used in fitness and athletic training contexts to track body composition changes over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the tape calibrated in both inches and centimeters?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The 60\" woven fabric tape is calibrated in both inches and centimeters, making it suitable for use in clinical documentation systems that use either unit of measurement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for the woven fabric tape?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWipe the tape clean with a damp cloth and mild disinfectant after each patient use. Avoid soaking or submerging the tape, as prolonged moisture exposure can affect the calibration markings over time. Store in the protective plastic housing when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baseline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388555341878,"sku":"121201","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/baseline-measuring-aids-default-title-baseline-gulick-measurement-tape-60-in-spring-loaded-23631840149558.jpg?v=1788637952","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/en-ca\/products\/baseline-gulick-measurement-tape-60-in-spring-loaded","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
