Extended-Reach Tweezers
Extra-long tips provide access to material in hard-to-reach areas.
Tweezers with plastic-coated standard tips won't mar delicate components.
400 series stainless steel tweezers have good corrosion resistance and harder, more durable tips than 300 series stainless steel, but aren’t quite as strong as steel. They are mildly magnetic.
Plastic Tweezers
Choose plastic tweezers for a soft, nonmarring grip. These tools are corrosion resistant and nonmagnetic.
Tweezers with slim tips allow more visibility of your work than standard tips.
Tweezers with bent tips reach over and around obstructions.

Heat-Protection Tweezers
The cushioned grips insulate against heat. These tweezers are made of 300 series stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance. Commonly known as anti-magnetic, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use.
Tweezers with bent tips reach over and around obstructions.
Tongs
Use these general purpose tongs for gripping and positioning.
Tongs with plastic-coated jaws won’t scratch or nick components.
