cylindrical grasp

[silin′drikəl]

the normal position of the hand and fingers when holding cylindrical objects, such as a glass tumbler, railing, or pot handle. The fingers and thumb close and flex around the object, which is stabilized against the palm of the hand. It occurs as a reflex action in infants and later develops into a voluntary gross grasp.
