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. Titanium has a very high melting temperature and is commonly used when soldering platinum.
Tweezer Metal | Hardness | Non-Magnetic | Corrosion or Acid Resistance |
---|---|---|---|
Carbon Steel | Stainless Steel | Non-Magnetic Stainless (Anti-Mag) | Brass |
Very Hard | Hard | Soft | Soft |
No | No | Yes | Yes |
Poor | Satisfactory | Good | Fair |
