• 4 1/2″ – 115 mm.
• Fine, short, curved of angled tips.
• Suitable to applications which require holding a very fragile small component.
• The curved geometry provides maximum visibility and increased ergonomics..
• The carbon fiber reinforced ESD and non-scratching properties.

Engineering plastic type CF.

• PA66/CF30 – polyamide 66 reinforced with 30 wt% carbon fibre.
• ESD safe material, lead-free.
• High mechanical strength and toughness.
• Low friction, self lubricating properties, excellent wear and abrasion resistance.
• Heat stabilized, 130°C (continuos use) – 190° (short time).
• Very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion.
• Very high rigidity, excellent tensile and flexural strength (bend strength), fatigue and creep resistance.
• Good chemical resistance (oils, grease, fuels, non polar solvents), but not resistant to strong acids, alkalis, hot water or steam.
• Applications include handling of sensitive components and devices (electronic components, micro-mechanical parts, glass and ceramic substrates, etc.) where non-scratching is critical. Popular in standard ESD and general electronics assembly and lab applications.

High-performance plastic type SV.

• PVDF – polyvinylidene fluoride carbon fibre reinforced.
• ESD safe material, (avoid powder attraction, sparks generation, ignition sources).
• Smooth surface, excellent mechanical strength and toughness.
• Heat stabilized, high heat capability, continuous use temperature up to 150°C.
• High purity (clean room and medical devices approved, low extraction value).
• Excellent chemical resistance to most aggressive substances (mineral and organic acid) and solvents (hydrocarbons, alcohols, halogenated), resistant to halogens.
• Outstanding resistance to hydrofluoric acid (40% conc., 90°C), nitric acid (50% conc., 90°C), hydrochloric acid (36% conc., 90°C).
• High abrasion resistant.
• Resistant to UV and nuclear radiation (sterilisation).
• Typical applications include handling of very scratch- and contamination-sensitive components, cleaning and etching processes.

Engineering plastic type DG/DL.

• POM/GF30 acetal resin reinforced with 30 wt% glass fibre.
• Good tensile and flexural strength, fatigue and creep resistance.
• Low friction, good wear and abrasion resistance.
• Low moisture absorption and insulating.
• Good chemical resistance (oils, grease, fuels, organic solvents); not resistant to strong acids, alkalis and oxidizing agents; good hydrolytic resistance (hot water).
• Typical applications include handling of very scratch sensitive components (ceramic and glass devices, wafers, capillary).
