Ideal-tek 2A.TA.0.ITU High Precision tweezers 2A.TA, Titanium, OAL 120mm, 4.72in
The Ideal-tek 2A.TA.0.ITU titanium high precision tweezers are designed for delicate applications requiring a flat component to be held firmly. Their straight, fine, rounded, flat Type 2A tips provide a defined contact geometry for positioning and holding. The 120 mm titanium tool weighs 8.5 g and has a sandblasted finish.
Ideal-tek lists this model as not ESD safe. Titanium construction alone does not establish suitability for static-sensitive handling. Evaluate the exact tool, component and approved production process together.
Best Uses / Applications
-
Delicate flat-component handling: evaluate the 1.90 mm wide, rounded flat tips against the intended gripping surface and contact restrictions.
-
Precision bench and micro-assembly: assess control, visibility and release using the actual part, fixture and magnification.
-
Electronics and semiconductor-related assembly tasks: consider only where the operation permits a non-ESD-safe tool; material selection does not replace static-control requirements.
-
Medical-device manufacturing and controlled-environment work: qualify cleanliness, contact surfaces and cleaning compatibility separately. No patient-use, sterility or ISO cleanroom qualification is established by this listing.
-
Low-mass tool selection: use the manufacturer's 8.5 g model weight when comparing alternatives rather than assuming a fixed percentage reduction against every stainless steel tweezer.

Selection Comparison
| Requirement |
How to evaluate this model |
| Firm holding of a flat component |
Assess the rounded flat tips, contact area and controlled release on the actual part. |
| Low tool mass |
Compare this model's 8.5 g weight with the exact alternative, not a generic titanium-versus-steel percentage. |
| Very fine pointed access |
A pointed style offers a different contact geometry. Compare tip dimensions and clearance rather than treating all fine tips as interchangeable. |
| Plastic rather than metal contact |
Evaluate a plastic-tip or full-plastic alternative separately for marking, wear, cleanliness and chemical compatibility. |
| Static-sensitive handling |
This model is not ESD safe. Select an appropriately designated alternative within the approved ESD-control process. |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Type 2A tip designed for?
Ideal-tek describes Type 2A for delicate applications requiring a flat component to be held firmly. This model has straight, fine, rounded, flat tips measuring 1.90 mm wide and 0.12 mm thick. Evaluate the contact area and pressure on the actual component.
How much does the 2A.TA.0.ITU weigh?
The manufacturer lists a net weight of 8.5 g / 0.019 lb. Overall length is 120 mm / 4.724 in. Compare this exact model's mass with a specific alternative rather than assuming all titanium tools deliver the same percentage weight saving.
Are these titanium tweezers ESD safe?
No. Ideal-tek explicitly lists this model as not ESD safe. Titanium construction is not an ESD-safe designation and does not replace the approved static-control process.
What finish does the manufacturer specify?
The body finish is sandblasted. This corrects the previous description of the finish as “none.” No quantified glare reduction or wear-life improvement is claimed here.
Can this tool be used with any solvent or cleaning method?
No universal compatibility is established here. Confirm the cleaning agent, concentration, temperature and exposure conditions for the complete tool. Do not assume that titanium construction validates every chemical exposure or sterilization process.
Is this model qualified as a non-sparking tool for flammable environments?
This listing does not establish such a qualification. Do not select it for a flammable or explosive environment based on the material name alone; obtain application-specific documentation and follow the site's tool-selection requirements.
Can these tweezers be used in medical-device manufacturing or a cleanroom?
Only after evaluation for the defined manufacturing task. This product page does not establish sterility, patient-contact suitability, an ISO cleanroom classification or validated cleaning compatibility. Inspect tips for alignment, debris, wear and damage before use.
