3C CF SA

The 3C CF SA is a Precision Tweezer made of anti-magnetic anti-acid stainless steel body with ESD Carbofib (CF) tips. It contains from 16.5 to 18.5 wt% chromium and has important quantities of nickel and molybdenum as additional alloying elements. It is suitable for use in electronic industry, watch-makers, jewellers and laboratory and medical applications in moderately aggressive chemical environments. It is also suitable for use in handling of sensitive components and devices (electronic components, micro-mechanical parts, glass and ceramic substrates, capillary).

• Heat stabilized
• Very high rigidity, excellent tensile and flexural strength, fatigue and creep resistance
• Low friction, self lubricating properties, excellent wear and abrasion resistance
• Good heat capability
• Good chemical resistance, not resistant to strong acids, alkalis and hot water or steam
• ESD safe material, (avoid powder attraction, sparks generation, ignition sources)
• Very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion
• Non-magnetisable
• Good corrosion resistance to most chemicals, salts and acids
• Generally used where corrosion resistance and toughness are primary requirements
• Annealed state
• 8g/cm³ Density
• 40% Elongation, break
• 200GPa Modulus of elasticity
