IDEAL-TEK 1.SA.0.ITU High Precision tweezers 1.SA Stainless Steel Anti-Magnetic
IDEAL-TEK 1.SA.0.ITU High Precision tweezers 1.SA Stainless Steel Anti-Magnetic
The Ideal-tek 1.SA.0.ITU high precision tweezers combine straight, fine, pointed tips with a 120 mm body for delicate component handling. Type 1 is designed to hold a small component firmly while maintaining good visibility of the work area. Anti-magnetic, anti-acid stainless steel (SA), a sandblasted body and the manufacturer's superior tip finish complete this Swiss-made precision tool.
Best Uses / Applications
Consider Type 1 for small-part positioning, precision assembly, laboratory handling, inspection and repair work where a fine point and clear view of the component matter. Use light, controlled pressure appropriate to the part and protect the fine tips from bending or prying loads. Ideal-tek explicitly identifies this model as not ESD safe; choose an appropriately rated alternative when your process requires ESD-safe tools.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Type 1 designed for?
Ideal-tek describes Type 1 as suitable for delicate applications requiring a small component to be held firmly while providing good visibility.
Are the tips straight or curved?
The tips are straight, fine and pointed, with a superior finish specified by the manufacturer.
What are the current tip dimensions?
The current manufacturer page and product datasheet specify 0.13 mm tip width and 0.11 mm tip thickness.
Are these tweezers ESD safe?
No. Ideal-tek lists this model as not ESD safe. Anti-magnetic stainless steel is a material characteristic, not an ESD-safe designation.
What does SA mean?
SA identifies the anti-magnetic, anti-acid stainless steel used for the body. The body finish is sandblasted.
How does Type 1 differ from Type 00?
Type 1 has fine, pointed tips for delicate handling and visibility. Type 00 has thicker, squared, strong tips for firm holding. Both compared SA models are 120 mm long and are not designated ESD safe.
