Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of V-jaws in these laboratory tongs and forceps?
- V-jaws are typically used on laboratory tongs or forceps to hold round or cylindrical objects, such as flasks, test tubes, vials, or pipettes.
- They provide a stable and secure grip without causing damage to the object.
