ESD Tool Wiha Professional 32343

The Wiha Professional ESD Tool 32343 is a precision tweezers designed for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protected work on sensitive electronic components. Made from a special alloyed chrome-nickel stainless steel, the tool offers corrosion resistance and long service life while meeting IEC 61340-5-1 standards for ESD control. It weighs 29 g and measures 145 mm in length, with a straight profile and an approximately 4 mm wide rounded tip for controlled handling.

Advantages

The tweezers feature a fine-tooth and grooved gripping surface for secure component hold, a non-glare black anti-static coating, and anti-magnetic and acid-resistant properties. Their surface resistance is specified at 10^6–10^9 ohms, providing reliable ESD protection during handling. Lightweight construction and stainless steel material ensure durability and ease of use in professional electronics work.

How to use

Hold the tweezers by the shaft and use the rounded 4 mm tip to pick up and place components with steady, controlled movements. Use the fine-tooth and grooved gripping surfaces to secure small parts without excessive pressure. Ensure the tweezers remain within an ESD-protected area and grounded personnel practices are followed when handling static-sensitive devices.

Recommendations

Use the tweezers only on properly grounded ESD workstations and avoid contact with corrosive chemicals despite their acid resistance. Clean with a soft, lint-free cloth and approved ESD-safe cleaning agents; do not use abrasive cleaners. Store in a protective case or rack to prevent tip damage and preserve anti-static coating.
