Aven Tools 18032TTB Titanium Blue Tweezers, Pattern OO
Aven Tools 18032TTB Titanium Blue Tweezers, Pattern OO
The Aven Tools 18032TTB Titanium Blue Tweezers feature a Pattern OO profile that tapers to a strong point for precision assembly, inspection and component positioning. With a 123 mm overall length and approximately 5 mm tips, this model offers a shorter tip profile than the Pattern AA Titanium Blue tweezers. Lightweight, non-magnetic titanium supports handling where tool magnetism is undesirable, while the blue titanium oxide PVD finish adds corrosion resistance and durability. Each pair is handcrafted and individually inspected under a microscope.
Best Uses / Applications
- Precision assembly: Position and retrieve small parts when a tapered strong-point profile matches the gripping task.
- Short-tip component handling: Choose the approximately 5 mm tip profile when shorter tips suit the workpiece and access path.
- Electronics inspection: Manipulate components during detailed visual checks or microscope-assisted examination.
- Soldering preparation and positioning: Hold or align parts during suitable soldering tasks; no temperature limit is supplied.
- Magnetically sensitive handling: Use non-magnetic titanium where tool magnetism could interfere with the workpiece or process.
- Silicon-chip industry tasks: Consider the tool for precise handling, subject to your process and contamination-control requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Aven 18032TTB?
It is a Pattern OO titanium precision tweezer with tapered strong-point tips and a blue titanium oxide PVD finish.
How long are the tweezers and tips?
Overall length is 123 mm (4.84 inches), and tip length is approximately 5 mm.
How does Pattern OO differ from Pattern AA?
Both supplied profiles taper to a strong point. The 18032TTB Pattern OO is 123 mm long with approximately 5 mm tips; the 18013TTB Pattern AA is 121 mm long with approximately 10 mm tips.
Are these tweezers magnetic?
No. The supplied product information identifies the titanium construction as non-magnetic.
What does the blue PVD finish provide?
The titanium oxide Physical Vapor Deposition process produces the blue finish and adds corrosion resistance and durability.
Are they ESD rated?
The supplied listing does not specify an ESD rating or electrical resistance range. Non-magnetic titanium and the blue finish do not establish ESD protection.
Are they certified for a specific cleanroom class?
No specific cleanroom class or particle-release test is supplied. Qualify the tool against your process requirements rather than assuming certified or guaranteed particle-free performance.
Can I use them for soldering tasks?
Aven lists soldering tasks among the applications. Use them for suitable component handling and positioning, but do not assume a high-temperature rating because no temperature limit is supplied.
Where are they made?
The listed country of origin is Pakistan. Each pair is handcrafted and individually inspected under a microscope.
Handling Guidance
Use the tips for controlled precision handling. Avoid prying, twisting or excessive squeezing that could damage tip alignment or the workpiece.
