The CK SMD type X104.SA cross-locking tweezers feature a self-locking function and high-quality stainless steel arch, allowing for fatigue-free work and precise positioning of components in SOT cases and similar applications. This precise instrument is made from stainless steel (No. 4435 / AISI 316), which not only has anti-magnetic properties but is also resistant to acids and corrosion. The surface is finely polished and matte, making the tweezers visually appealing while simultaneously supporting functionality. The tips are angled and specially beveled, as well as broad and short, to ensure optimal gripping ability. With a length of 120 mm and a smooth gripping and handling surface, the tool offers comfortable handling. The tweezers are not ESD-safe, which should be considered when used in corresponding environments. Ideal for professionals who need reliable and precise equipment to efficiently accomplish their demanding tasks.
The series "Precision" impresses with high precision and fineness and has been adapted to the constantly changing requirements.

Material designations and properties
Code letter
Material
Properties
(C)
Tool steel, hardened
+ Very long service life. + Very stable. + Cost-effectiv. -Strongly magnetic. -Sensitive to corrosion (protection only by nickel plating).
S
Stainless steel
+ Largely stainless without nickel plating. + Fine tips possible. + High tip hardness. - Slightly magnetic. - Can rust under extreme conditions.
SA
Stainless steel (No. 4435 / AISI 316)
+ Stainless. + Antimagnetic. + Resistant to conventional acids and vapurs. - Not so hard as "C" or "S".
Note: Full steel tweezers are 100% conductive. Under certain circumstances, they can be used in the ESD area. The decision on the application in the ESD area lies with the user.
Ceramic
Zirconia ceramic and aluminum
+ No electromagnetic induction at high frequency. + No eddy current losses. + 100% electrically insulating. + 100% antimagnetic. + 100% antistatic. + Extremely wear-resistant, approx.10 x better than steel, approx. 100 times better than plastic. + Temperature-resistant up to 700°C. + Extremely low thermal conductivity. + 100% stainless. + Resistant to acids and alkalis (except hydrofluoric acid). + Extremely smooth anti-adhesive surface. -Tips can break in case of misuse.
Carbofib
Carbon fiber tips and SA steel
+ Stainless. + Antimagnetic. + Acid-resistant. + Conductive. + Gentle on surfaces. + Stable and durable. + Temperature-resistant up to 270°C.
