Pickling Tongs — Straight 9 Inch Copper Tweezer for Acid Bath & Pickle Pot Work

These 9-inch copper tongs offer safe, contamination-free handling for jewellery pickling and other acid bath processes.

What it does

Crafted from solid copper, these tongs prevent iron contamination that can ruin silver pieces during pickling. The broad, straight jaws feature a fine cross-hatch pattern for a secure hold on your work, while the outer arms are milled with serrations for improved grip and control. Their 9-inch length provides a safe working distance from aggressive chemical solutions.

How to use it

• Set up your pickle pot and work area safely.
• Grip items firmly with the cross-hatched jaws.
• Rinse tongs thoroughly after each use.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths cleaning soldered work. Replace your steel tweezers in acid baths to avoid costly copper plating errors. Ideal for professionals and serious hobbyists working with flux and oxidation removal.
