About product

Model Craft, fine self-locking tweezers with serrated jaws

It is not a kit and not an accessory to a model, but a modeling tool. These are straight stainless steel tweezers about 160 mm long with pointed, finely serrated jaws. The locking action is the key: the tweezers work in reverse, so once closed they hold the part by themselves and you do not have to press on them. The material is antimagnetic and acid-resistant, which comes in handy when working with photo-etched parts, with etchants and with glues.

Use

  • gripping and holding small parts while gluing with cyanoacrylate glue, with both hands staying free
  • handling photo-etched parts, wire and fine fabric details, where fingers would deform the part
  • holding a component while the joint sets, instead of improvised clamps
  • taking small parts out of photo-etched frets and carrying them to the model
  • work with decals, electronics and jewelry components

Why serrated jaws

The serration raises the friction on the contact surface, so a smooth plastic or metal part will not slip out of the jaws even under light pressure. Be careful with finished painted parts, as the serrations can leave an imprint in soft varnish; on varnished surfaces it is better to use tweezers with smooth jaws or a pad.

Who the tool is for

For plastic modelers, builders of figures and of railway models, for electronics and for fine craft work. The self-locking type will be appreciated above all by anyone who works a lot with cyanoacrylate glue and needs to hold a part in position until the joint sets.

The tips of the tweezers are sharp. Store them out of reach of children and protect the points from being dropped and from leverage loads, which will bend them.

FAQ

They work the other way round from ordinary tweezers: at rest they are closed. You open them by squeezing, and once released they grip the part and hold it by themselves, so your hands are free.

It raises the friction, so a smooth plastic or metal part will not slip out of the jaws. On freshly painted surfaces, though, it is better to use smooth jaws.

They are not. The material is antimagnetic and acid-resistant, so small steel parts do not stick to the tips.

Yes, the pointed jaws let you take a part out of the fret and carry it to the model without bending it. The resistance to acids is an advantage when cleaning etchings too.
