Tweezers
Grip a variety of objects with these general purpose tweezers.
Tweezers with slim and offset tips allow more visibility of your work than standard tips. Tweezers with bent and curved tips reach over and around obstructions. Tweezers with angled and rectangular tips are good for placing chips and electronic components on circuit boards. They are also known as SMD (surface-mount device) tweezers. 300 series stainless steel tweezers have excellent corrosion resistance, but the tips are less durable than 400 series stainless steel. Commonly known as anti-magnetic tweezers, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use.
Tweezers with a dull appearance won’t cause reflections and glare under a microscope.

High-Precision Tweezers
Swiss-made to tight tolerances, these tweezers have perfect tip alignment, so they can be used to work under magnification.
Tweezers with bent and curved tips reach over and around obstructions. Tweezers with cylindrical tips hold small components, such as wire, capacitors, and screws. 300 series stainless steel tweezers have excellent corrosion resistance, but the tips are less durable than 400 series stainless steel. Commonly known as anti-magnetic tweezers, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use.

Grip small objects without applying any pressure—the tips on these tweezers open when you squeeze them and close when you release. Swiss made to tight tolerances, they have the perfect tip alignment required for work under magnification. They’re 300 series stainless steel, so they have excellent corrosion resistance but their tips are less durable than those made of 400 series stainless. Commonly known as anti-magnetic tweezers, they are typically nonmagnetic but may become slightly magnetic with use. Tweezers with bent or curved tips reach over and around obstructions. Those with bent tips also have square ends for placing chips and electronic components on circuit boards. Also known as SMD (surface-mount device) tweezers.

Grasp tiny components on circuit boards and other electronic systems in order to test, identify, and troubleshoot them. These testers perform a complete analysis of components by measuring inductance, capacitance, resistance, dissipation factor, quality factor, impedance, and equivalent series resistance. They automatically determine the component model and test parameters, but you can manually select the parameters and test signal levels too. An LED screen displays the component type and measurements. These testers also check if diode voltage is open or shorted, if components are in the best-performance tolerance range so you can sort them, and if there’s continuity in the resistance readings or a shorted conductor. All include a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. They run on a rechargeable battery, so you aren’t tethered by a power cord.
These testers have tweezer-style pointed tips for precision control. Made of stainless steel, the tips withstand wear and high temperatures. They’re also gold plated to conduct electricity and resist corrosion and tarnishing, which hurt conductivity.
Testers with Bluetooth connectivity work with iOS and Android devices to download, store, and share data.
