Aven Tools 18066EGS EZ Grip Micro-Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, 5B Pattern
Aven Tools 18066EGS EZ Grip Micro-Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, 5B Pattern
The Aven Tools 18066EGS EZ Grip micro-serrated tweezers feature a 5B pattern with an extended tip that angles to a very fine point for working in tight, narrow areas. Textured tip contact helps grip small parts, while diamond-pattern knurling supports comfortable finger control.
Made from anti-acid, anti-magnetic 304 stainless steel with a satin finish, this compact 121 mm tool provides an approximately 10 mm tip length. When access around a small part is limited, the angled point offers an alternative approach to a straight-tip tool.
Key Features
- 5B angled very fine point: Extended-tip design for tight and narrow areas.
- Micro-serrated tips: Textured contact surfaces help grip small objects.
- EZ Grip handle: Diamond-pattern, cross-hatch knurling supports comfort and control.
- 304 stainless steel: Listed as anti-acid and anti-magnetic.
- Satin finish: Distinct from the black PVD-treated version.
- Compact dimensions: 121 mm overall length with an approximately 10 mm tip.
Best Uses / Applications
- Confined-area assembly: Positioning small parts where angled very fine-point access is useful.
- Inspection benches: Holding and turning small items for visual examination.
- Electronics repair and soldering preparation: Positioning suitable small parts before joining or during detailed bench work.
- Modelmaking: Handling small detail parts in narrow assemblies.
Evaluate serrations before handling easily marked surfaces. This listing does not establish an ESD rating, electrical insulation or a temperature rating; select documented tool performance when your process requires it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Aven 18066EGS used for?
It is a precision tweezer for gripping and positioning small parts, particularly in tight or narrow areas that benefit from an angled very fine point.
What does the 5B pattern mean?
The 5B pattern has an extended tip that angles to a very fine point. This model lists an approximately 10 mm tip length.
Why choose micro-serrated tips?
The textured contact surfaces help hold small objects securely. Assess potential marking before using them on delicate parts.
How does the 18066EGS differ from the 18066EGBLK?
The 18066EGS is listed with micro-serrated tips and a satin finish. The 18066EGBLK features a black titanium carbide PVD treatment for increased scratch and corrosion resistance. Both list 121 mm overall length and approximately 10 mm tip length.
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.
How long are the tweezers?
The overall length is 4.76 inches / 121 mm. Tip length is approximately 10 mm.
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.
