Description
Vallorbe Swiss Eco Range Round Machinist/Engineers Files are designed for precision metalwork requiring a consistent rounded profile. These files have a slight taper toward the cut end — they are not parallel and do not taper to a point — making them well suited for enlarging and refining round openings, slots, and curved surfaces with control and accuracy.
Double-cut construction enables efficient material removal while leaving a smooth finish. Available in three lengths and three cuts, these Swiss-pattern files give machinists, engineers, and bench professionals the right combination of size and aggression for the task at hand.
Features
- Double-cut teeth for fast, efficient material removal and smooth results
- Slight taper toward cut end — not parallel, not tapered to a point
- Swiss-pattern construction for consistent quality and precision
- Available in three lengths: 4" (100mm), 6" (150mm), and 8" (200mm)
- Three cut grades: Bastard (Cut 1 / Coarse), Second (Cut 2 / Medium), Third (Cut 3 / Fine)
- Part of the Vallorbe Eco Range — sold individually

Notes
Machinist/Engineers files differ from Jeweler's Precision files in both cut grading and dimensions:
- A Bastard Cut (1) on a machinist file is coarser than a #1 jeweler's precision file — do not treat cut numbers as equivalent across file types.
- Length is measured differently: machinist files are measured from tip to where the tang begins to angle; jeweler's files are measured from tip to where the heel begins to angle.
