Selector Tweezers

Ted Pella’s selector tweezers are high-precision tools used to manipulate microscopic samples in applications such as electron microscopy (TEM, SEM) and nanotechnology.

Made from materials like stainless steel or titanium, they offer durability, corrosion resistance, and extreme precision. Ideal for delicate and exact handling tasks in advanced laboratory environments.

Materials
Stainless Steel (304, 316): Provide excellent corrosion resistance, high hardness, and durability, ideal for laboratory settings.
Titanium (Grade 1 or 2): Non-magnetic, lightweight, and highly corrosion-resistant, suitable for handling materials sensitive to magnetic fields.
Tungsten Carbide: Tips with high hardness and wear resistance, used for precise manipulation of very hard or abrasive samples.
​

Tips
Straight: Ideal for general high-precision manipulation tasks.
Curved: Offer better visibility and access to hard-to-reach areas, useful in delicate mounting applications.
Extra Fine (0.05 mm or less): For ultrafine manipulation of nanoparticles, TEM grids, and nanoscale structures without risk of damage.
Anti-Adhesive Coatings (PTFE): Reduce adhesion of biological or chemical materials, facilitating contamination-free handling.

Ergonomics and Design
Non-Slip Handles: Provide greater control and precision when handling small samples, reducing error risk.
Weight Balance: Designed to optimize weight distribution for easy, comfortable handling, essential for high-precision work over extended periods.
