Simonds Needle File Square Profile

The Simonds 83528500 is a Swiss pattern needle file with a square profile and smooth single-cut faces. It is designed for detail work on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin. The rigid body tapers toward the point and features safe edges to protect adjacent surfaces. This new tool suits modellers, jewellers and precision engineers.

Build Integration and Workspace Fit

The file arrives in a box for organised storage within a tool chest or drawer. Its 6 1/4 inch length without tang allows access to tight apertures where larger files cannot reach. The 1/8 inch width and 1/16 inch thickness let it enter narrow slots and keyways. No handle is included so users can fit a preferred round handle or use the tang directly.

Hand Use Feel and Durability

The natural finish and rigid construction transmit tactile feedback during push strokes. Smooth cut coarseness removes material steadily without aggressive scoring. Four cut edges distribute wear evenly across the profile. The tool requires no power or lubrication and produces negligible noise in normal bench use.

Questions about this item

How long can the 6 1/4 in file length maintain its smooth single-cut profile on hardened steel before the teeth dull?

The Swiss-pattern needle file is designed for aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin; its smooth single-cut face and four safe edges retain geometry during extended hand-filing sessions on those metals.

Does the natural-finish square needle file generate noticeable hand fatigue or heat during continuous daily use?

The rigid 1/16 in thick, 1/8 in wide square profile with a round handle distributes pressure evenly, keeping vibration and heat build-up low during prolonged smoothing work.

What handle or holder is required to use the 83528500 square needle file safely?

The file already includes a round handle; no additional holder is needed — simply grip the integrated handle and apply the tapered square tip to the workpiece.
