The Gulick Tape Measure makes it easy for anyone to accurately and repeatably measure various body dimensions by applying a calibrated tension. It is non- stretch, non-metallic tape measure.
If an ordinary tape measure is used, the measurement will depend on how tightly the tape is pulled. Two consecutive measurements are usually quite different. If two or more people take the same measurement, the results rarely agree.
The most important part of the Gulick Tape Measure is its tensioning device, which provides a known amount of tension while a measurement is being taken. Each individual tensioning device is precisely calibrated to indicate a 4-ounce tension. The Gulick tensioning device uses a stainless steel compression spring - this guarantees that the calibration will last a lifetime, since it is impossible to "over-compress" a spring of this type.
