When soldering delicate surface - mount (SMD/SMT) components, you need a top - notch pair of tweezers. These anti - static and anti - magnetic tweezers feature a durable stainless - steel body and ESD plastic tips. The fine, pointy plastic tips let you pick up components safely without scratching them. However, they aren't suitable for holding parts during hot air rework or when close to a soldering iron. This 13 - cm long model has a 10mm (0.4') gap when the tips are open, allowing you to pick fairly large TQFPs and SSOPs for stable placement while soldering.
How to use: When you're soldering delicate surface - mount components, simply use these tweezers to pick up the parts. Make sure to hold the tweezers steadily and gently grasp the component. The fine tips make it easy to get a good grip. Note: Don't use these tweezers for holding parts during hot air rework or when your soldering iron is close. The plastic tips can be damaged by high heat. Maintenance: Keep these tweezers clean. You can use a soft cloth to wipe them after use. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust on the stainless - steel body.
