{"product_id":"glardon-vallorbe-pillar-needle-files-la2401","title":"Glardon-Vallorbe Pillar Needle Files - LA2401","description":"\u003cp\u003eA pillar needle file works on a flat surface on a small part, in a slot or against a shoulder where a full-size file cannot reach. Glardon-Vallorbe pillar needle files, also called equalling needle files or flat needle files, are the genuine Swiss-made standard for precision metalwork. These are not merely Swiss-pattern files; they are manufactured in Vallorbe, Switzerland by Glardon-Vallorbe, the maker behind the quality that professional jewelers, metalsmiths, and watchmakers have relied on for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNorth American craftsmen may recognize these files under the Grobet Swiss name. Since 2015, however, files sold under the Grobet brand have been made in Italy. If your file is marked \u003cem\u003eSwiss Made\u003c\/em\u003e, it was made by Glardon-Vallorbe of Vallorbe, Switzerland, and that distinction matters at the bench. These files are manufactured to precise production standards using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship, producing the most accurate, best-cutting, and longest-lasting needle files available. Made from the finest heat-tempered chrome alloy steel, they deliver the right feel, action, and balance that true craftsmen demand, with superior performance across all metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese pillar files have round handles and come in five lengths and up to six cut grades, from extra coarse (00) to extra fine (6). Length is measured from where the teeth begin to the end of the file.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Swiss Made, manufactured by Glardon-Vallorbe in Vallorbe, Switzerland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePillar profile (also known as equalling or flat needle file) with round handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat-tempered chrome alloy steel construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine cut with hand craftsmanship for superior accuracy and longevity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in five lengths: 100 mm, 140 mm, 160 mm, 180 mm, and 200 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut grades range from 00 (extra coarse) through 6 (extra fine);
