Aven Tools 18013EGS EZ Grip Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, AA Pattern
Aven Tools 18013EGS EZ Grip Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, AA Pattern
The Aven Tools 18013EGS EZ Grip serrated tweezers combine an AA-pattern strong tapered point with textured tips for controlled small-part handling. Made from anti-acid, anti-magnetic 304 stainless steel with a satin finish, this precision hand tool supports assembly, inspection and soldering preparation.
When a small part slips during positioning, serrated contact surfaces help maintain a grip. The compact 121 mm overall length and approximately 10 mm tip length provide a practical bench-tool configuration, while diamond-pattern knurling adds texture at the finger-contact area for comfort and control.
Key Features
- Serrated tips: Textured contact surfaces help grip small objects.
- AA strong tapered point: Designed for precision positioning.
- EZ Grip handle: Diamond-pattern, cross-hatch knurling supports finger control.
- 304 stainless steel: Listed as anti-acid and anti-magnetic.
- Satin finish: The finish specified for the 18013EGS model.
- Compact dimensions: 121 mm overall length with an approximately 10 mm tip.
Best Uses / Applications
- Precision assembly: Picking up and positioning small parts where a strong tapered point and serrated contact are appropriate.
- Inspection benches: Holding and turning small items for visual examination.
- Soldering preparation: Positioning suitable parts before joining, without treating the tweezers as insulated or heat-rated.
- Repair and modelmaking: Handling small hardware and detail parts that are difficult to manipulate by hand.
Evaluate serrated tips before handling easily marked surfaces. For ESD-sensitive components, select tools with documented ESD performance required by your process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Aven 18013EGS used for?
It is a precision tweezer for gripping and positioning small parts during assembly, inspection, repair and soldering preparation.
What does AA pattern mean?
The AA pattern tapers to a strong point. This model lists a 121 mm overall length and approximately 10 mm tip length.
Why choose serrated tips?
The textured tips help hold small objects securely. Assess potential marking before using them on delicate parts.
How does this differ from the 18013EGBLK?
The 18013EGS is listed with serrated tips and a satin finish. The 18013EGBLK is the black AA model with titanium carbide PVD treatment for increased scratch and corrosion resistance. Both list 121 mm overall length and approximately 10 mm tips.
What material are these tweezers made from?
They are made from 304 stainless steel listed as anti-acid and anti-magnetic, with a satin finish.
Are these tweezers ESD-safe?
This listing does not provide an ESD rating or certification. Anti-magnetic construction alone does not establish ESD-safe performance.
What is different about the EZ Grip handle?
The diamond-pattern, cross-hatch knurled surface adds texture at the finger-contact area for comfort and control during detailed work.
