Glardon-Vallorbe Thin Flat Hand Precision Files - LP1168

The Glardon-Vallorbe LP1168 Thin Flat Hand Precision File is a slimmer profile alternative to the LP1163 Flat Hand File, measuring 2mm thick and 17.5mm wide versus the LP1163's 4mm thickness and 18.5mm width. The cut section runs 6" (150mm) long, one face is safe (uncut), and the file is available in four cuts ranging from Extra Coarse to Medium. These proportions make the LP1168 well suited for work in tighter spaces or on finer flat surfaces where a thicker file would be unwieldy.

Glardon-Vallorbe Swiss Made Precision Files are manufactured to precise production standards, combining machine cutting with hand craftsmanship to produce exceptionally accurate, fast-cutting, long-lasting files. They are made of fine heat-tempered chrome alloy steel and deliver the balanced feel and action demanded by professional jewelers, metalsmiths, and craftspeople. Glardon-Vallorbe files deliver superior performance on all metals and are simply the best you can buy. Formerly distributed by Grobet USA under the Grobet Swiss brand name.
