IDEAL-TEK 00.SA.0.ITU High Precision Tweezers Anti-Acid/Anti-Mag SS
IDEAL-TEK 00.SA.0.ITU High Precision Tweezers Anti-Acid/Anti-Mag SS
The Ideal-tek 00.SA.0.ITU high precision tweezers are designed for tasks that require holding a component firmly. Their straight, thick, squared tips offer a strong gripping profile, while the 120 mm overall length provides a compact tool for precision handling. Swiss-made anti-magnetic, anti-acid stainless steel (SA) construction is finished by sandblasting, with the superior tip finish specified by Ideal-tek.
Best Uses / Applications
Consider Type 00 tweezers for precision assembly, inspection, laboratory handling and repair tasks where a firm hold matters more than an ultra-fine point. The thick, strong tip profile is useful for positioning small parts that need secure handling. Select gripping pressure to suit the workpiece. Ideal-tek explicitly lists this model as not ESD safe; anti-magnetic stainless steel does not make it an ESD-rated tool.
Key Features
- Type 00 straight tips with a thick, squared, strong profile.
- 0.85 mm tip width and 0.50 mm tip thickness.
- 120 mm (4.724 in) overall length.
- Anti-magnetic, anti-acid stainless steel body, material code SA.
- Sandblasted body finish and superior tip finish.
- Standard action, not reverse action; made in Switzerland.

Choosing the Right Tweezer Profile
| Handling requirement | Selection guidance |
|---|---|
| Firm component holding | Type 00 offers thick, squared, strong tips. |
| Access requiring a very fine point | Compare a finer-tip model against the part dimensions before selecting. |
| Angled approach around obstructions | Consider a bent or curved-tip model rather than this straight profile. |
| ESD-rated handling | Select a tool explicitly designated ESD safe; 00.SA.0 is not. |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Type 00 profile designed for?
Ideal-tek describes Type 00 as suitable for applications requiring a component to be held firmly. Its tips are thick, squared and strong rather than ultra-fine.
Are these tweezers ESD safe?
No. The manufacturer's product page explicitly lists ESD safe as no. Do not treat the anti-magnetic material designation as an ESD rating.
What does SA mean?
SA is Ideal-tek's designation for the anti-magnetic, anti-acid stainless steel used for the body.
How large are the tips?
The specified tip width is 0.85 mm (0.033 in) and tip thickness is 0.50 mm (0.020 in). The listed opening gap is 8 mm (0.315 in).
Are these reverse-action tweezers?
No. Ideal-tek lists reverse action as no; this is a standard-action tweezer.
What is the length and country of manufacture?
Overall length is 120 mm (4.724 in). The product datasheet lists Switzerland as the country of manufacture.
