Simonds Needle File Tool Storage

The Simonds 83495500 is a new Swiss pattern needle file designed for precision detail work on metal surfaces. It features a rectangular profile with single-cut faces and safe edges, tapering toward the point for controlled material removal. The file measures 5-1/2 inches in length without the tang and comes packaged in a protective box.

Metalworkers needing smooth finishes on small

This tool suits jewellers, model makers and instrument technicians who require a rigid, smooth-cut file for aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin. The 3/64 inch thickness and 3/16 inch width limit its use to fine detail rather than rapid stock removal. Buyers needing aggressive material removal or wider surface coverage should consider coarser or larger hand files instead.

Fits directly into a tool chest or drawer

The supplied box keeps the file organised and protects the cutting edges from damage during storage. Its compact 5-1/2 inch length allows it to sit alongside other needle files without requiring dedicated rack space. The natural finish and rigid construction mean no additional protective coatings or handling equipment are needed for daily workshop use.

Questions about this item

Which handle style will this Simonds 83495500 needle file fit into?

The file has a round handle, so it works with any holder or handle designed for round-tang needle files.

Can I use this smooth-cut file on the same aluminium and brass parts I finish with coarser files?

Yes, the smooth-cut Swiss pattern works on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin for final detail passes after heavier material removal.

How do I confirm the file is cutting correctly after I start using it?

A clean, single-cut action on the three safe edges with no clogging shows the smooth-cut profile is performing as intended.
