Introduction

The Value-Tec general purpose tweezers are made from solid stainless steel and intended for general purpose applications. Solid stainless steel provides good corrosion resistance against weak acids, salts, oils, and solvents.  Superior corrosion resistance compared to nickel plated carbon steel tweezers. These solid stainless steel tweezers represent exceptional value and are made according to the standard tweezers styles, but tend to be more robust with less sharp tips.  Useful for many less demanding applications in sample preparation, laboratory, field, educational, biology, industrial, electronics, and assembly applications. All Value-Tec tweezers are polished and exhibit a satin gloss surface.  Two types of sorting tweezers are available with a black ESD safe epoxy coating. For more demanding applications, we recommend the EM-Tec high precision tweezers with the sharper tips.  For use in high magnetic fields or for handling magnets, we recommend using fiber reinforced plastic tweezers or Titanium tweezers. Four groups of the Value-Tec general purpose fine tweezers are offered:

• Fine tip tweezers in 15 different styles and a set of five in a plastic pouch. Made from non-magnetic stainless steel. Smooth grips, non-serrated tips. For magnetic fields and magnets use fiber reinforced plastic or Titanium tweezers.
• Fine tip reverse action tweezers with self-closing tips to hold samples without pressing the handles. Available in 4 popular styles.
• Flat tip tweezers offered in two styles. For handling delicate parts such as cover glass, small wafers, quarts substrates, stamps, foils etc. Made from non-magnetic stainless steel with smooth tips with serrated grips.
• Sorting tweezers (also known as diamond or jewelry tweezers) are ergonomic, long slim tweezers which rest against the hand and are ideal for sorting and handling small parts, seeds, gem stones, grains and samples. Choice of 6 different models. Available with fine tips, lightweight titanium, black epoxy coated, strong tips and locking tweezers.
• Soft tip tweezers with glass fiber reinforced polyamide tips and magnetic stainless steel grips. Offered with pointed and blunt tip. Ideal for scratch sensitive and softer materials.
