Tronex 2A Precision Tweezers with Replaceable ZTA Ceramic Tips
Handle flat and delicate components with precise control using these Swiss-made Style 2A precision tweezers. The straight, fine, flat rounded tips are made from black Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) ceramic, providing exceptional hardness along with resistance to high temperatures and aggressive environments.
Unlike conventional metal tips, the ceramic tips are electrically insulating and non-magnetic, making them particularly useful for electronics, component handling, soldering and rework, laboratory applications, and other situations where metal tips may be undesirable. The tips are also replaceable, allowing the tweezer body to remain in service when the working tips eventually need replacement.

Replaceable ZTA Ceramic Tips
The working tips are made from Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA), a ceramic material selected for applications requiring excellent hardness and resistance to demanding environments.
Ceramic tips offer several useful properties for precision component handling:
-
Electrically insulating
-
Non-magnetic
-
Resistant to high temperatures
-
Resistant to aggressive environments
-
Hard and wear resistant
-
Suitable for handling sensitive components
These characteristics make ceramic tips especially useful when conventional metal tweezer tips are not ideal for the application.
Style 2A Flat Rounded Tip
The Style 2A profile provides straight, fine tips with a flat gripping surface and rounded ends.
This design is particularly useful when a flat component needs to be held firmly without using a sharply pointed tip.
The finished tips measure approximately .075" (1.90 mm) wide and .014" (0.35 mm) thick, providing a broad but relatively thin gripping surface for controlled component handling.
Replace the Tips, Not the Entire Tweezer
One of the primary advantages of this model is its replaceable-tip construction.
If the ceramic tips become worn or damaged, they can be replaced with the Tronex 2A-ZJK-RT Replacement Ceramic Tip Kit rather than replacing the complete tweezer.
The replacement kit includes two ceramic tips and the required mounting screws.
Stainless Steel Body
The tweezer body is made from stainless steel with anti-magnetic and anti-acid properties.
This provides a durable professional tool body while the ceramic inserts provide the specialized working surfaces at the tips.
Sandblasted Finish
The stainless steel body has a sandblasted finish that produces a low-glare working surface.
Reducing reflections can be particularly helpful under bright bench lighting, microscopes, and task lights when working with very small components.
5.12" Overall Length
At approximately 5.12" (130 mm) overall, this model is slightly longer than the conventional all-stainless Style 2A tweezer.
The additional length accommodates the replaceable ceramic tip system while maintaining a comfortable working profile for precision handling.

Ceramic vs. Stainless Steel Tips
Ceramic tips offer different properties from conventional stainless steel tips.
Choose ceramic tips when electrical insulation, non-magnetic behavior, temperature resistance, chemical resistance, or a hard ceramic gripping surface is beneficial.
For general-purpose precision work where those properties are unnecessary, conventional stainless steel Style 2A tweezers may be the more straightforward choice.
2A-ZJSA-CH vs. 2A-SA-CH
Both models use the Style 2A flat rounded tip profile, but their working surfaces are different.
The 2A-ZJSA-CH uses replaceable ZTA ceramic tips and is particularly useful when electrical insulation, temperature resistance, or a non-metallic gripping surface is needed.
The 2A-SA-CH uses conventional stainless steel tips in a one-piece tweezer design.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the tips made from?
The black tips are made from Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) ceramic.
Are the ceramic tips replaceable?
Yes. The tips can be replaced without replacing the entire tweezer.
