The invention relates to tweezers made of light weight metal (10) and
having two pincers (12, 14) each of which forms a head part (13)
on one of their ends and can be reversibly and temporarily brought together on
their other end by manually applying a closing pressure; the tweezers (10)
preferably consist of extruded light weight metal and are embodied as a single
pierce. A closed novel extrusion profile (60) with an approximately tweezers-shaped
cross-section is preferably used in the production of the tweezers.
