Swiss handmade precision tools
Dumont has been designing
and manufacturing tweezers since 1875 - tweezers that are known all over
the world for their high quality, durability and detailed engineering.
Dumont is the largest manufacturer of tweezers in the world, supplying a
wide variety of businesses through a vast national and international
distribution network.
We are pleased to share with all of our
valued customers a note from Dumont SA, our supplier of these fine
quality tweezers and forceps.
"From its origin on, Dumont SA has a passion for precision. 5
generations have worked to take these unique and reputable tools to the
leading position in the industry worldwide.
For 125 years, quality and innovation are the drive of this family
business which has proved to be able to adapt easily to an ever-changing
marketplace. Dumont SA sets itself to only select the world's highest
quality raw materials for its tools. We then work it with the utmost
specific machinery and tooling specially designed by the family to
guarantee the highest precision.
We have on staff highly skilled workers specialized in hand-finishing
the tips. These people have been trained in house by our own
supervisors, who themselves have learnt from our past specialists.
Training for such specialty takes up to three years and it is getting
harder and harder to find people with all of the necessary talents
namely precision and accuracy, attention to detail and perfect eyesight.
This hand-finishing step is the most expensive of all operations in
manufacturing our tools but it is also what makes the difference in the
final result.
Two other goals have recently been added to our basic drive lines: a
real concern for the employees and the environment. Our factory, in the
healthy and quiet village of Montignez, provides the most favorable
working environment for our employees. The use of wind-generated power
and extensive recycling (officially recognized and rewarded in 2002)
prove that Dumont SA knows how to combine efficiency and ecology.
At a time when all companies seem to need to relocate, Dumont is and
will remain based in Switzerland to provide our loyal customers with
true 100% Swiss Made products. Our family will stay strong and keep on
the good work to be the best.
We thank you for your trust and your support.
DUMONT SA"

Available Alloys
Carbon steel (01) - is an extremely hard alloy (>59 HRC) composed of C, Mn and Si. While Carbon ensures strong tips, it will nevertheless easily rust. This alloy is magnetic and cannot be sterilized.
Inox (02) - is composed of C, Mn, Cr and Si and is a standard magnetic stainless steel. This alloy is not as hard as carbon steels because it contains Chromium. Inox (02) will resist temperatures of around 400°C (DIN 50 914) but cannot be sterilized.
Dumoxel® (03) - is composed of C, Cr, Ni, Mo and Cu and is the most popular alloy. This alloy was developed and patented by Dumont® to offer the best in resistance to corrosion thanks to its high concentration of molybdenum and chromium. Dumoxel also guarantees an excellent resistance to sulphuric environments, hydrochloric acid, as well as to all other mineral and organic acids. Dumoxel® is 95% antimagnetic, resistant up to temperatures of around 400°C (DIN 50 914) and is suitable for autoclave sterilization at 270°C.
Antimagnetic (04) - is a standard alloy composed of C, Cr, Ni and Mo. It offers a good resistance to corrosion thanks to its high concentration of molybdenum and is 80% antimagnetic but is not as hard as Inox. Antimagnetic is resistant up to temperatures of around 400°C (DIN 50 914) and its suitable for autoclave sterilization at 270°C.
Nickel (05) - is a 100% antimagnetic alloy composed of Cu, Ni, Mn and Zn. It is widely appreciated as an alloy as it does not damage the components handled by it.
Brass (06) - is composed of Cu, Pb, Sn, Ni and Zn. This alloy is 100% antimagnetic and is widely used for handling delicate components, especially in watch-making.
Titanium (07) - is an alloy composed of C, Fe, O, H, N and Ti. It is totally resistant to corrosion from nitric acid, chloride, salt water and the like. This alloy is not as hard as Inox (08) but is 40% lighter and more flexible. Titanium is 100% antimagnetic and resistant up to temperatures of around 430°C.
Inox (08) - is a medical stainless steel composed of C, Mn, Cr, Mo and V that provides an excellent resistance to corrosion and a good resistance to salt. Although not as hard as Carbon steels, Inox (08) offers excellent resistance to corrosion. This magnetic alloy supports temperatures of around 400°C (DIN 50 914) and is suitable for autoclave sterilization at 180°C.
Dumostar® (09) - This Dumont® patented alloy is composed of C, Cr, Mo, Mn, Co, Ni and Si. Dumostar is more elastic and more resistant to corrosion than the best stainless steels. It is also perfectly compatible with human tissues and is resistant to mineral and organic acids as well to salt. Although slightly more expensive than other alloys, Dumostar is 100% antimagnetic and is resistant to sterilization temperatures of up to 500°C. This is the most cost effective and appropriate alloy for laboratory use.
White ceramic tips - Ceramic ZrO2 is even harder than stainless steel and does not contain carbon or other metal additives. It offers good resistance to chemicals and is Electro Static Discharge safe. White ceramic tips are antimagnetic (Zero residual magnetism) and microwave-sterilization compatible. They do not produce metallic contamination and offer good thermal isolation for soldering; solder will not adhere to their surfaces. White ceramic tips are clean room safe and are available in anti-static versions for CMOS.
Black ceramic tips - Ceramic ZrO2 is even harder than stainless steel and does not contain carbon or other metal additives. It offers good resistance to chemicals and is Electro Static Discharge safe. Black ceramic tips are antimagnetic (Zero residual magnetism) and microwave-sterilization compatible. They do not produce metallic contamination and offer good thermal isolation for soldering; solder will not adhere to their surfaces. Black ceramic tips are clean room safe and are available in anti-static versions for CMOS.
