Electronic Component Tweezers
Unlike other tweezers where the tips come together, these tweezers have tips specially designed to remove chips and other delicate components from circuit boards.
Cushion-grip tweezers have plastic grips for comfort.

Replaceable-Tip Tweezers
Extend the life of these tweezers by replacing the tips when they become worn. Commonly known as anti-magnetic tweezers, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use.
Tweezers with pointed tips give you a firm grip. Tweezers with round tips won’t mar or nick components.
Carbon fiber tips are the strongest, so they can handle repeated use on heavy components without cracking or degrading. However, if you press hard enough, they can leave carbon particles behind. The soft tips won’t nick or scratch components. They are often used in general electronics assembly. These tips are conductive, meaning static can flow through them to divert an electrostatic discharge (ESD). However, their low surface resistivity means that they can increase the static charge while diverting it.
Acetal tips are exceptionally soft, so you can use them to handle fragile material without marking or deforming it. They are often used with glass, ceramic, and other surfaces that are easily scratched. These tips are electrical insulating, meaning that they block the flow of electricity. They are not safe for applications where electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a concern.

Replaceable-Tip Tweezers Sets
These assorted tweezers have tips that can be replaced when they become worn. Tips are carbon fiber, which insulates against heat and won’t nick or scratch components. They also drain static from your application, preventing buildup from electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can damage sensitive equipment. The body of the tool is 300 series stainless steel, which has excellent corrosion resistance. Commonly known as anti-magnetic tweezers, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use.
