Glardon-Vallorbe Round Parallel (Cylinder) Precision Files - LP1669

Round parallel files, also called cylinder files or chainsaw files, hold one diameter along the whole cutting length with teeth cut over the entire surface, so they open and true a hinge, a length of tubing, or a cylindrical opening without tapering it. Glardon-Vallorbe LP1669 precision files are Swiss made from heat-tempered chrome alloy steel and are supplied as a tang only, with no handle. Because these files are also manufactured in large quantities for sharpening chainsaw chains, they are available in a wide range of diameters to suit a variety of bench applications.

Glardon-Vallorbe precision files are manufactured to precise production standards using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship. Made from the finest heat-tempered chrome alloy steel, they deliver superior performance on all metals and are recognized as the world standard for quality, accuracy, and longevity. Formerly distributed by Grobet USA under the name Grobet Swiss.
