Simonds Needle File No 0
The Simonds 83536500 is a Swiss pattern needle file designed for precision shaping and finishing. Its barrette profile and single-cut faces produce a smooth surface on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin. The rigid construction tapers toward the point for controlled access in tight spaces.
Smooth-Cut Barrette Profile
The file coarseness is a smooth cut with a barrette profile that provides two safe edges and single-cut faces. This combination removes material cleanly without clogging on non-ferrous metals. The 6 1/4 inch length without tang and 1/4 inch width give the reach and rigidity needed for detailed bench work.
Jewellers and Model Engineers
This needle file suits jewellers, instrument makers and model engineers who need a smooth finish on small components. It is not intended for heavy stock removal on large workpieces. Buyers requiring a coarser cut or a different profile shape for aggressive filing should look at alternative file types.
Highlights
- Smooth single-cut finish for precise material removal
- Safe edges prevent damage to adjacent surfaces

Questions about this item
How does the 6 1/4 inch file length without tang affect reach in a real machine?
The 6 1/4 inch length provides extended reach for accessing tight internal areas while the rigid body maintains control during precision filing tasks on metal surfaces.
What does the Swiss Pattern file style mean for the cutting standard and what does it cap in practice?
Swiss Pattern indicates a finer tooth configuration than American pattern files, capping the coarseness at a smooth cut level suitable for finish work on aluminum, brass, bronze, steel, and tin.
What does the round handle design need to fit or mount in a storage system?
The round handle fits standard tool box compartments and organiser trays designed for needle files, while the box container allows stacked storage with other precision hand tools.
