Interchangeable ESD-Safe Wafer Tips

for Porta-Wand, Porta-Vac II, and ExP Vacuum Wand

ESD-safe, up to 100 °C

These wafer tips are molded from ESD-safe PEEK plastic to handle wafers up to 100 C.
The low profile of the wafer tip head provides easy access to wafers in industry standard boats.
These tips attach to all of our wafer handling tools as well as competitive systems.
