Swiss Pattern Needle File Set
The General Tools 707476 set contains six Swiss pattern needle files designed for hobbyists, craftsmen, tool makers and jewelers. Each file is made from alloy steel and machined into distinctive shapes for small scale and finishing applications. A Versa-Grip handle with a locking screw chuck is included for secure grip during detailed work.
Replaces individual needle files
This set replaces the need to purchase separate Flat, Round, Three Square Warding, Mill, Square and Half Round Equaling files individually. The jump is worth it when you require a complete range of profiles for intricate shaping tasks and prefer the convenience of a single vinyl storage pouch. Knurled shanks also allow use without the handle for tighter access.
Check shank compatibility and handle fit
Before ordering, verify that the 1/8 inch diameter shanks match the collet or chuck requirements of any existing handles you plan to use. Confirm the 5-1/2 inch overall file length suits the scale of your typical projects. Ensure the locking screw chuck mechanism on the included 700 series Versa-Grip handle operates correctly for your workflow.

Questions about this item
What size are the file shanks and do they fit a standard handle?
The shanks are 1/8 inch diameter and fit the included Versa-Grip handle with its locking screw chuck; the knurled shanks also work without a handle.
How do you secure a file in the Versa-Grip handle and what step is often missed?
Insert the 1/8 inch shank into the chuck and tighten the locking screw fully; the step often missed is not tightening the screw enough so the file slips under pressure.
When will the needle files need replacement and how can wear be slowed?
Replace files when the teeth no longer cut cleanly; store them in the supplied vinyl pouch and keep the shanks clean to reduce corrosion and dulling.
