Badeco Mini 5LC100 Polishing Handpiece

The Badeco 5LC100 is a super-mini polishing and filing handpiece engineered for precision work in the Swiss watch and jewelry industry. Remarkably slim and lightweight at just 43 grams (slightly under 1½ oz), this handpiece is a testament to Badeco's long history of supplying demanding bench professionals. Compatible with the Badeco RS3000 and P3000 micromotors, it brings exceptional control and reach to the most difficult finishing tasks.

The 5LC100 features a 1mm stroke and is designed exclusively for polishing and filing — it is not a hammer handpiece and should not be used for stone setting. It excels when paired with ceramic files or Glardon-Vallorbe miniature handpiece files, allowing jewelers and metalsmiths to file, finish, and polish areas that would otherwise be inaccessible by hand.

Tools such as ceramic files and Vallorbe miniature files are secured in the included Universal Tool Holder via a set screw. Additional Universal Tool Holders are available separately under part number 134.743-UTH. For larger tooling, Badeco offers a special 3.2mm tool holder that uses two set screws to secure tools up to 3.2mm in diameter, available separately as part number 134.743-320.

The most popular configuration pairs the 5LC100 with the RS3000 nano micromotor and either the MX-1 or MX-4 Evolution control boxes. It is also compatible with the P3000 portable micromotor system. Note: This handpiece is not compatible with the MX-4 Touch Evolution — the handpiece is too narrow to accommodate the light sensor holders used in that system.
