It is designated for standard measuring of skin-folds in humans. It has a lightweight two-sided scale and is prominent for its easy manipulation. Measuring is performed between two facets of 3 mm diameter, which, at the point of reading the dimension, are compressed together with force of 2 N (0.2 kg). Accessories of the calliper contain calibration weights.
