Flexure Tea Bag Squeeze Tongs
One-piece tongs with a flexure spring, 148 mm long. Two 30 x 22 mm slotted jaw pads open to a 14.8 mm gap. Use them to lift a hot tea bag and squeeze it out over the cup, or to grab olives, pickles and ice cubes. The 3.6 mm U-spring springs the jaws back open and leaves a 21 mm loop for hanging the tongs on a hook. It prints flat with no hinge pin to lose, and the grooved finger pads stop wet fingers from slipping.
