Abstract: |
The invention relates to tweezers made of light weight metal ( 10 ) and having two pincers ( 12, 14 ) each of which forms a head part ( 13 ) on one of their ends and can be reversibly and temporarily brought together on their other end by manually applying a closing pressure; the tweezers ( 10 ) preferably consist of extruded light weight metal and are embodied as a single pierce. A closed novel extrusion profile ( 60 ) with an approximately tweezers-shaped cross-section is preferably used in the production of the tweezers.
