Glardon-Vallorbe Crossing Needle Files - LA2403

A crossing file is the one you reach for on an interior curve, and its double radius lets you work right at the junction of two curved surfaces. Crossing files are half round on two sides, with one side having a larger radius than the other. They taper in both width and thickness and are cut and usable all the way to the point.

Glardon-Vallorbe crossing needle files are Swiss-made precision tools built for professional jewelers and metalsmiths who demand accuracy and longevity. They have round handles and are measured tip to tip, including the handle, while the cutting length is measured from where the teeth begin to the end of the file.

Glardon-Vallorbe needle files are graded from 00 (coarsest) to 6 (finest). The higher the number, the finer the cut. Manufactured to precise production standards using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship, these files are made from the finest heat-tempered chrome alloy steel and deliver superior performance on all metals.
