The Materials Used For The Plastic Tweezers And Pliers

 

 

  • Glass Filled Delrin® (POM) - Excellent resistance to moisture, solvents, gasoline and other natural chemicals. Can withstand temperatures up to 250°F (120°C). Not suitable for gamma sterilization.
  • Anti static Glass Filled Delrin® - Carbon Fiber Reinforced, mechanical and thermal properties same as glass filled Delrin®, but are also electrically conductive
  • Ryton (PPS) - Excellent resistance to solvents, steam, strong bases, fuel and acids. Resists hydrofluoric acid up to 35%. Can withstand temperatures up to 425°F (220°C)
  • Celcon® (POM) - Excellent wear resistance and resistance to most solvents and fuels - maximum temperature is 175°F (80°C)
  • ESD Safe Celcon® (POM) - Static dissipative (ESD safe) for handling electronic parts. Excellent wear resistance and resistance to most solvents and fuels. Maximum temperature 175°F (80°C)
  • Fluorocarbon (CTFE) - Withstands hydrofluoric and other acids, resistant to solvents; ideal for chemical processing. Also resists radiation and UV light.. Has a high dielectric strength and high surface resistivity. Can withstand temperatures up to 300°F (150°C) and cryogenic temperatures down to -328°F (-200°C)
  • Anti static PVDF - Carbon fiber reinforced, EDS safe material, excellent chemical resistance to acids, solvents and halogens. Resistant to UV and nuclear radiation. Can withstand temperatures up to 300°F (150°C)
  • Glass Filled Nylon (poly amide) - Excellent resistance to oils, bases, solvents, formaldehyde and alcohols. Can withstand up to 210°F (90°C. Less suitable for dilute acids. Electrical resistance decrease with absorption of water.
  • High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) - Excellent resistance to alkalis and good resistance to most acids. Not suitable with solvents. Utilization range is -30°C to +60°C (-22°F to +140°F).
