## Description

The Engineer DA-52 dual-tip ceramic PCB alignment tool revolutionises the precision adjustment of electronic circuit components. This professional-grade tool features non-conductive zirconia ceramic tips specifically engineered for accurate trimming and adjustment of variable components on PCB circuits.

Key Features- Dual ceramic tips: 0.4mm x 1.3mm and 0.7mm x 2.5mm for versatile component adjustment
- Non-inductive and non-conductive zirconia ceramic construction
- Integrated hex shafts (2.0mm and 2.5mm across flats) for variable coil adjustment
- 4-in-1 design combining alignment and adjustment capabilities
- Ergonomic pen-style housing with protective caps and pocket clip
- ROHS compliant, Made in Japan

How to UseThe DA-52 excels in precision PCB adjustments through its dual-ended design:

- For fine adjustments: Utilise the 0.4mm x 1.3mm tip with its 2.0mm hex shaft for delicate trimming of small components
- For standard adjustments: Deploy the 0.7mm x 2.5mm tip with its 2.5mm hex shaft for general variable component tuning

For optimal results when working with surface-mount components, pair with [Adafruit Ceramic Tip Tweezers](https://core-electronics.com.au/ceramic-tip-tweezers.html) for stable component handling. Secure your PCB using a [SparkFun Stickvise PCB Vise](https://core-electronics.com.au/stickvise-pcb-vise-47670.html) to maintain steady positioning during adjustments.
