Why is it so important to pay attention to the conductivity of hand tools when working with statically sensitive electronics?
ESD stands for electrostatic discharge and describes a transfer of charge from one charged body to another, which can lead to damage and undesired results, especially with sensitive electronic components. In our article "What is ESD, why is protection against it so important?" we go into detail about this topic.
Our BERNSTEIN ESD tweezers are designed to prevent electrostatic discharges. They are made of materials such as stainless steel or carbon fibre that prevent or dissipate static charges.
They comply with the ESD standard IEC 61340-5-1, so the leakage resistance is in the range of the ideal value between 106 and 109 Ohm.
ESD tweezers ensure prevention of electrostatic discharge. Protection against damage to sensitive components and ensuring work safety at the workplace, as well as in the workshop at home.
Our ESD tweezers are available in various sizes and shapes to meet the different requirements in the electronics industry.
The tips of the ESD tweezers are usually very precise and finely crafted to allow accurate handling of even small electronic components.
There are also ESD tweezers with special coatings or shapes that are optimised for specific applications such as placing tiny SMD components or holding solder beads.
In our digital catalogue you will find our complete range of tweezers.
In addition, we recommend our current brochure about our BERNSTEIN tweezers, as well as the optimal ESD workstation equipment in our download area.
If an individual solution is required for your special needs, we as the manufacturer will find a solution for you and your area of application.
