Aven Tools 18077EGS EZ Grip Micro-Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, #66 Pattern
Aven Tools 18077EGS EZ Grip Micro-Serrated Tweezers Stainless Steel, #66 Pattern
The Aven Tools 18077EGS EZ Grip micro-serrated tweezers combine an extended-length #66 pattern with a tapered fine point for detailed small-part handling. Micro-serrated tips help grip objects, while a diamond-pattern knurled handle supports comfort and finger control during assembly, inspection and soldering preparation.
Made from anti-acid, anti-magnetic 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, this model measures 140 mm overall with an approximately 20 mm tip length. When a small part is difficult to hold with fingers, textured tip contact helps maintain a grip during positioning.
Key Features
- #66 tapered fine point: Extended-length configuration for precision handling.
- Micro-serrated tips: Textured contact surfaces help grip small objects.
- EZ Grip handle: Diamond-pattern, cross-hatch knurling for comfort and control.
- 304 stainless steel: Listed as anti-acid and anti-magnetic.
- Polished finish: The finish specified for the 18077EGS model.
- 140 mm overall length: Approximately 20 mm tip length.
Best Uses / Applications
- Precision assembly: Picking up and positioning small parts where a tapered fine point and textured 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 using them on easily marked surfaces. For ESD-sensitive components, select tools with documented ESD performance required by your process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Aven 18077EGS used for?
It is a precision tweezer for gripping and positioning small parts during assembly, inspection, repair and soldering preparation.
What does the #66 pattern mean?
The #66 pattern features extended length and tapers to a fine point. This model lists a 140 mm overall length and approximately 20 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.
Is the 18077EGS the black PVD model?
The specification table identifies the 18077EGS finish as polished. The separate 18077EGBLK model is identified with a black titanium carbide PVD treatment.
What material are these tweezers made from?
They are made from 304 stainless steel listed as anti-acid and anti-magnetic.
Are these tweezers ESD-safe?
This listing does not provide an ESD rating or certification. Anti-magnetic stainless steel alone does not establish ESD-safe performance.
How does this differ from the 18076EGS?
The 18077EGS uses the #66 tapered fine-point pattern with approximately 20 mm tips. The 18076EGS uses the 65A angled fine-point pattern with approximately 5 mm tips. Their listed overall lengths are 140 mm and 138 mm, respectively.
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.
