The Vallorbe Swiss Eco Range LX5550 Half-Round File is a Swiss pattern machinist and engineers file designed for precision material removal on flat and curved surfaces. One side is half-round and the other is flat, allowing the file to work on both contoured and planar surfaces in a single tool. Each file tapers to a cut end for access to tighter areas and is double cut for efficient stock removal.
Available in three lengths — 4", 6", and 8" — and three cuts ranging from Bastard (Cut 1, coarsest) to Second Cut (Cut 2) and Third Cut (Cut 3, finest), these files offer a broad range of finishing options for machinists and engineers.
Important: Machinist files (also called Engineers files) are made to a different standard than Jewelers Precision files. Cuts and shapes are not equivalent. A Machinist file Bastard cut (marked 1) is coarser than a jewelers file marked 1, and dimensions will differ slightly. Lengths on Machinist files are measured from the tip to the point where the tang begins to angle up to the heel — this differs from how Jewelers Precision file lengths are measured.
