Tweezers are one of those tools that you don’t realize you need until you NEED one. While these Grobet plastic tweezers won’t replace anyone’s Swiss-made precision-tipped steel tweezers, they’re great to use in a pinch and are essentially disposable.
Plastic tweezers are also good to use when steel tweezers might damage a delicate part, or when costlier steel tweezers are at risk of damage or corrosion.
For less than $2 each, we bought a few of these plastic tweezers to keep in various tool and hobby boxes.
I’m still having a hard time trying to figure out a use for these
At home, I typically use tweezers when holding and positioning small parts to be glued, when retrieving small parts from caustic chemicals (rust remover, for example), and for general handling of small or delicate parts.
