- 5″ – 130 mm.
- Straight, thick, beveled, strong tips.
- Suitable to applications which require holding a component firmly. The Carbon Fiber reinforced ESD Plastic provides the tweezers with ESD and non-scratching properties.
Tip material: Engineering plastic – CARBON FIBER (CF).
- PA66/CF30 – polyamide 66 reinforced with 30 wt% carbon fiber.
- 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.
Tip material: High-performance plastic – CARBON PEEK (CP).
- PEEK – polyetheretherketone reinforced with carbon nano.
- ESD safe material 105-106 Ohm.
- Very hard, rigid, high tensile and flexural strength, very high wear resistance.
- High heat capability (260-300°C), good dimension stability, low thermal linear expansion coefficient.
- Excellent resistance to chemicals and aggressive agents, excellent resistance to thermal ageing.
- Typical applications include handling of components in cleaning/chemical/assembly processes also at high temperature (soldering).
Tip material: High performance plastic – PVDF (SV).
- PVDF – polyvinylidene fluoride carbon fiber 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).
