BeltChain HipChain2
Introducing the HipChain 2 – a reliable tool for precise distance measurement. Tie the cotton thread to a fixed object at your starting point, zero the counter, and start walking. As you move, the thread extends, turning the counter. The instrument attaches to your belt, keeping the thread taut and accurate (the photodegradable thread breaks down with sun exposure). Once you reach your endpoint, break the thread and continue.
Crafted from high-impact resistant plastic, the HipChain 2 measures distances up to 9999.9 meters and includes a 5000-meter spool of photodegradable thread. The design features a slim cone that holds the longer thread spool, which securely interlocks with the case, reducing snags and simplifying rethreading, saving you time in the field. A new friction brake ensures consistent measurement accuracy across units.
The HipChain 2’s high-visibility red case is built for durability, with metal hinge pins for cold weather resilience and a sturdy metal clasp. The conveniently placed reset knob at the rear allows for a sleek, smooth outer profile. This knob can be easily turned with a finger from the side or top. The paired gear sets enable easy calibration from feet to meters without additional parts, keeping the retail cost consistent regardless of the chosen calibration.
