Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AA style tip profile?
The AA style features straight, strong, and precise tips suitable for general-purpose component handling, SMT placement, and electronics assembly tasks. The straight tip provides good visibility and control for picking and placing components on PCBs and in tight spaces.
Are these tweezers ESD safe?
The 18013EZ are manufactured from 304 stainless steel and are anti-magnetic and anti-acid, but are not coated with ESD-dissipative material. For ESD-sensitive component handling in an EPA, use Aven's ESD-safe tweezer series. Contact MTE Solutions for ESD-safe tweezer options.
Why use color-coded tweezers?
Color-coded tweezers improve process control and productivity in electronics assembly environments. Operators can instantly identify the correct tweezer style for their specific task by color, reducing errors and eliminating the need to read part numbers. Engineers can specify tweezers by color in work instructions, making process documentation clearer and easier to follow.
What material are Aven E-Z Pik tweezers made from?
E-Z Pik tweezers are manufactured from 304 series stainless steel, which is anti-magnetic and anti-acid. The color coating is a highly durable special coating applied over the stainless steel body for long-lasting visibility and identification even under repeated use and cleaning.
