What Does Non-Scratch Actually Mean?
In the world of precision seals and o-ring pick tools, “non-scratch” refers to the material hardness of the tool relative to the hardware its servicing.
The Science of Metal Hardness: Our OPICK-BR (Brass) picks are machined from solid brass. On the Mohs scale of material hardness, brass rates at approximately a 3. This is significantly softer than the steel, stainless steel, or anodized aluminum typically used in engines, mechanical components, scuba regulators, and more.
Surface Protection: Because brass is the “softer” metal, the pick is designed to give way or wear down before it can gouge or scratch your metal glands and o-ring grooves.
Why the sharp tip for a non-scratch tool?
A sharp point is a functional necessity to get under a seated o-ring and remove it from its groove. However, dont let the sharpness of the tip fool you. Even with the sharp point of a brand new brass pick, youll find that the tip will naturally dull over time with heavy use. This is real-world proof that the tool is sacrificing itself to protect your much more expensive equipment.
Customizable Pick Ends: A Tool That Adapts to Your Task
Unlike brittle plastic or rigid hardened steel, brass is inherently malleable (able to be bent/formed as needed). This allows you to “fine-tune” the offset of the pick ends of the tool to your specific application.
