Broken Nylon Tipped Tweezers

The “nylon tip” of my tweezer from ifixit broke. A very similiar one then this here (at least the tip is the same):

https://eustore.ifixit.com/en/Tools/Grip...

It does not seem that i can order a replacement. On the other hand, it seems that the nylon-tip is attached with the rest with screws but it is also threaded.

How can i fix that?

Same problem here.

First time ever i used that tweezer to grab a little SSD screw with it and the tip broke instantly, not even placed any pressure or anything on it. Ifixit set bought from iFixit directly.
