Erem Tools - Precision Made in Switzerland
P
recision is sought by many but achieved by few. The quality and perfor-
mance of Erem hand tools is the result of more than 25 years of research
and manufacturing expertise. Erem is constantly innovating and developing
new tools for use in areas as diverse as electronics, aviation, biology, medical
(cardio-vascular, cannulae applications), watch and clock industry, telecoms.
Although your initial investment in Erem tools may be higher than some
other tools, the final cost based on medium to long term use will be lower
due to the economy resulting from the quality of the tools and in the
case of the cutters, the free of charge resharpening. The inhe-
rent precision of the tools will be reflected in the quality
of your products.

Erem Tweezers
E
rem tweeezers are high precision tools of constant high quality. Precise
finished and symmetrical tips together with easy handling and perfect
balance makes them outstanding tools. The range of Erem tweezers covers
a wide diversity of applications. It is produced in many shapes and can be
manufactured from different materials. The most popular models are avai-
lable in a lower cost economy (SL) range. In all models,
the type number of the tweezers is stamped, not printed.
The Material
Erem offers a wide variety of materials, carbon steel, stainless steel, Erem
special stainless steel, Nickel plated, Brass or Titanium. The most common ones‘
are explained below:
Carbon Steel
Carbon steel tweezers have hard tips but the rust resistance is low and they
are magnetic. Carbon steel tweezers have no suffix.
Stainless Steel
Tweezers from stainless steel have strong tips and are rust resistant but are not
as hard and longlasting as carbon steel tweezers. Stainless steel tweezers have the suffix „S“.
Erem Special Stainless Steel
This grade of steel is a non magnetic, rust resistant, anti acid alloy.
It is temperature resistant up to 300°C.
Tweezers from special stainless steel have the suffix „SA“
Coating
The Pyroplast coating is an exclusive by Erem. The advantages are:
- heat resistance up to 500°C (932°F), almost twice as much as
PTFE,
Cralon, etc.
- no capillary effect on tips while soldering (non-stick property)
- no contamination caused by positive or negative charge
- hydrophobic
- radiation resistant
- thickness 60-80 µ
the suffix is „PYR“.
Note: The Pyroplast coating is not available for all Erem tweezers. It is made to order
and needs a minimum order quantity. Please ask for further information.
Ergonomic
Developed by Erem, tweezers with ergonomically shaped handles to alleviate the problem
of
Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI)
and reduce operator fatigue. The range has been
selected to include the most popular tip shapes (see page 11). The main features are:
- ergonomic design for operator comfort and ease of control
- two colour, thermally insulated soft grip handles moulded from a synthetic material
- ESD safe
- the grips absorb heat for additional user protection
- manufactured from non magnetic, acid resistant, stainless steel alloy
- supplied in a rigid, transparent plastic box for protection and storage
The prefix for ergonomic tweezers is “E”.
