Workbench sessions go easier when you have a steady tool made just for small parts. This cross tweezer has a simple cross-arm shape that opens and closes with light spring tension. It is shaped to hold thin wires and small components while you work on solder joints and other close electronics tasks.
The design uses a light spring force, made for delicate objects that need a gentler touch. You place the arms around a wire or part and let the spring shape do its part while your hands stay free to guide the iron.
This is a plain, no-frills tool for your bench or parts tray. It is made to order in the USA after you place your order, and it ships to you as a finished, printed object ready to add to your tool collection.

What it is made of

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
