Nonsparking Awls
Made of beryllium copper that is Factory Mutual approved, these nonmagnetic, corrosion-resistant inhibit sparking. Use them to punch soft materials and scribe lines in metal and wood.
They satisfy OSHA requirements that specify nonsparking tools for locations where flammable vapors and combustible residues are present. Nonsparking tools are not, however, classified as antistatic because they do conduct electricity.
Warning: Do not use these tools in direct contact with acetylene due to the possible risk of explosion. Never sharpen or grind beryllium copper.
