Frequently Asked Questions
What tasks is the Menda 35622 probe designed for?
The 35622 is a versatile bench tool used for opening plastic snap-fit enclosures (MP3 players, cell phones, laptops, tablets), popping out batteries, lifting flex cables and connectors, manipulating small components on PCBs, and general precision prying and probing tasks in electronics assembly and repair environments.
Is the 35622 safe to use on ESD-sensitive assemblies?
Yes — the nylon construction makes the 35622 safe for use in ESD-protected areas (EPAs). Nylon is a non-conductive material that will not generate or conduct static charges that could damage ESD-sensitive components during handling.
Will the nylon tip scratch my PCB or plastic housing?
No — the nylon finish is specifically non-marking and will not scratch or damage delicate plastic housings, PCB surfaces, or component bodies. This makes it preferable to metal probes or screwdrivers for opening consumer electronics and handling populated boards.
What is the point-blade tip style?
The point-blade tip combines a pointed tip for probing and precision work with a blade edge for prying and lifting. This dual-function geometry makes the 35622 useful for a wider range of tasks than a single-profile tip, reducing the number of tools needed at the bench.
