 Tweezer Metals:
The chart below shows general property relationships among the various metals used in the manufacturing of tweezers. In addition, note that the points of the harder metals will wear longer and are less subject to bending. The softer metals will not scratch delicate parts and usually have additional desirable properties such as being non-magnetic, etc.  
Tweezer Metal Hardness Non-Magnetic Corrosion or Acid Resistance
Carbon Steel Very Hard No Poor
Stainless Steel (SS) Hard No Satisfactory
Non-Magnetic Stainless (Anti-Mag) Soft Yes Good
Brass Very Soft Yes Fair

 

Ceramic Tipped Tweezers-  These ceramic tipped, non-rusting tweezers have an aluminum shank.  They are extremely smooth and long wearing because they are harder than both stainless steel and carbon steel.  They are anti-magnetic and lightweight with a high heat and chemical resistance.  Silver and soft solders will not adhere to these tweezers.  They will withstand heat up to 1000° C, making them a great choice when soldering platinum.  5½" length.
