Alfa Mirage® SOFT TIP TWEEZERS D-MASTER

Grip slippery melee diamonds, faceted colored stones, watch components, and optical lenses securely without surface scratches, slippage, or shoot-offs. Manufactured in Japan, the Alfa Mirage® D-MASTER Soft Tip Tweezers (Model: 401-062) feature specialized elastomer tips with Shore A Hardness 80. By substituting hard metal-on-gem contact with an engineered soft elastomer grip, these tweezers conform gently around faceted stone girdles, allowing effortless, low-pressure holding from micro-melee diamonds up to 3 carats. Designed with electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety properties, they also protect microelectronics and watch assemblies from static charge damage.

Why Choose Alfa Mirage® D-MASTER Soft Tip Tweezers

• Scratch-Free Elastomer Grip (Shore A 80): High-friction elastomer tip inserts gently cushion gemstones, completely preventing surface scratches, facet abrasion, or accidental chipping on fragile stones like emeralds, opals, and pearls.

• Anti-Pop "Shoot-Off" Prevention: Unlike standard steel tweezers where stones can easily spring out under excessive clamping pressure, the elastomer jaw locks securely around faceted girdles with minimal finger force.

• Broad Gem Handling Range (Melee to 3 Carats): Engineered to handle tiny round brilliant melee, tapered baguettes, fancy cuts, and loose gemstones up to 3 carats with equal stability.

• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Safe: Dissipates static electricity, making it safe for handling high-precision watch balance wheels, hairsprings, micro-optics, and sensitive SMD/IC electronic chips.

• Ultra-Lightweight Ergonomic Body (17g): Slender stainless steel handle (125 x 10 mm) provides balanced dexterity and eliminates hand fatigue during lengthy diamond sorting and grading sessions.

• Replaceable Tip Assembly: Bolted screw-on elastomer jaw tips can be quickly replaced when worn, ensuring long tool service life.
